@Delectable Wine this is the Rouge Vielles Vignes. A lovely btl. On the nose: wild strawberry, spiced, sweet red fruit, soft bubble gum. On the palate: good acidity, spiced red fruit, a little thinner than I would like, but good juiciness, lovely savoriness; leather, dried fruit. On the finish, very soft, attenuated tannin. The aromatics are phenomenal... — 3 years ago

2005. So freaking smooth. Great balance. Little dark fruit tartness toward back. Wish had a touch more young fruit on the front. But so good. — 3 years ago

2006 vintage. Garnet color, some primary fruit (red cherry, black cherry, plum), but now showing lots of tertiary notes (leather, tobacco, dried herbs, dried fig, prune). 14.5% alcohol, medium acidity, full body. 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre. — 6 months ago
Late dinner in Paris. Smooth and delicious. — 2 years ago
Classic chambolle. Elegance is the word! Complex and clean nose with red currant, cherry, roses and primordial earthiness. On the palate, seductive elegance with a silky texture and feather like mouthfeel and outstanding linearity. It slowly peels away the complexity with layers of red fruits, roses and the classic limestone undertones. Borniques is biodynamically farmed with winemaking synched with lunar cycles on a small parcel of 1.4 ha situated right above the famous ‘Les Amoureuses’ with vines planted almost on the rock. It explains the very linear structure. The tannins, acidity and alcohol were in brilliant harmony with a finish where the dance continues for well over 2 mins. I loved this and it reminded me why Chambolle-Musigny is one of my absolute favorite villages in Burgundy. — 3 years ago

Very closed initially. This was still improving as we ran out of wine. Seemed almost stemmy compared to the Fourrier but Mugnier de-stems everything… — 5 months ago
