The nose is a bit on the secondary aromas side with a bit of oak and some toast. Then there is a bright sour cherry touch and some hay. Even a bit of leather. The palate is well designed with a strong acid backbone, some bright fruit, a good grip and some width, as should be expected for a Gevrey, strong, unresolved tannins. The finish is long and powerful with fruit and some complexity thanks to the tannins. Very good village level Gevrey. — 6 years ago
Nice follow up after Emmanuel Rougets Vosne Romanee 2009. This one really threw many of us off. Perhaps it was because the person who brought it slow-oxed it since morning. Anyway here goes... Very beautiful, floral, charming. Rousseau like. More fresh than the Rouget. Developing herbal notes towards the end. Guessed Mugneret Gibourg. Shocked everyone. — 7 years ago
Ever had a wine and said to yourself "this will be perfect in a couple of years". Well, I'm currently hunting down a few bottles of this one to lose in my cellar for a while. Sweet black cherry and under ripe plum, pomegranate seed and cranberry ride on top of fine sharp tannin that reminds me of Italy. Looking forward to seeing you again. — 8 years ago
Excellent mature but not over the hill Bourgogne rouge. Big improvement from my last off bottle — 6 years ago
Cool, stems but hardly green, a bit of cotton candy, charming nose, solid structure. Most people guessed Chambolle, Mugneret Gibourg. My second Bachelet and similar to the first one, there was a hint of stems and green peas. Yet, I found this one much more pleasant. The vintage surprised everyone including myself. There's a need to recalibrate my perceptions of 2015... — 7 years ago
Aromas of bubble gum and violets. Very fresh with lots of acidity. A summery Vosne-Romanée in a side by side comparison with the 2015 Mugneret-Gibourg village. — 8 years ago
Great comparison of 2 GC, both '93, not a vintage that would be regarded as spectacular, the Mongeard-Mugneret was all showy and expressive when opened, the Mugneret-Gibourg needed a little more time to come around, but at a pinch I think the M-M was the hit. — 9 years ago

Beautiful violet and rose petal aromatics. Multiple layers of floral notes and red fruits gliding in and out. Once again, touch of iron that made think that the village was from Gevrey, but could only think of two producers who make such elegant GC: Fourrier and Mugneret Gibourg. The floral quality and lack of candy notes left me with the former. Guessed Fourrier GC VV 2014 due to the relatively short finish (fooled by the vintage) but sappy tannins. — 7 years ago
Surprisingly fairly elegant for Clos de Vougeot. Not in the same league of intensity and complexity as Mugneret-Gibourg or Engel renditions, although less masculine than other Producers. I am guessing plot is below mid slope. — 10 years ago

Drank side by side with Mugneret Gibourg Chaignots of the same vintage. Found myself going back to the more sexier MG. — 5 years ago
