Tasting Notes – Domaine de la Vougeraie Musigny Grand Cru 2008
The 2008 Musigny Grand Cru from Domaine de la Vougeraie is a masterclass in balance, complexity, and ageing potential. Initially showing a backward and reduced nose, this fine Burgundy evolves into something remarkable. The palate is rich, dense, and opulent, delivering layers of dark cherry, wild herbs, and crushed stone minerality. There is a distinctive tension and brooding intensity in the wine’s core, yet it carries an unmistakably seductive, silk-like mouthfeel.
The finish is powerful, structured, and remarkably long, showcasing both the terroir-driven finesse of Musigny and the hallmark depth of Domaine de la Vougeraie's winemaking. Comparable to top Bonnes-Mares examples, it offers a beautiful contrast of muscular tannins and delicate precision.

Winery | A very backward nose that is also quite reduced leads to big, rich, and opulent flavours that possess a forceful, detailed and quite minerally finish that is serious, brooding and strikingly long yet, despite the power, possesses a seductive mouth feel that remains detailed and quite precise. I like the texture, and like the Bonnes Mares, it delivers a beautiful combination of power and finesse. 92-95 points Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan 2010, 2020+ |
