Reviewed January 2023This Nuits-Saint-Georges has an astonishingly expressive nose of sour cherries, pomegranate and blood orange, the oak almost completely masked by these aromas. The marriage of ripeness and vibrancy, fine tannins and stony acidity is very impressive. Interesting touch of liquorice at the long, bright and focused finish.

Mugnier’s nearly ten-hectare monopole at the southern extreme of Prémeaux-Prissey has suffered in recent years: hail in 2018, coulure in 2019, drought in 2020, and frost in 2021. It has produced a bit more than half a normal harvest this year, but what is left is lovely indeed, with lush, pretty aromas of raspberry with floral notes and a delicate, supple texture on the palate that is ethereal yet oddly persistent. It is far from the most structured in the portfolio but is among the most approachable. (CC)

A light to medium purple. Mugnier elegance meets the Maréchale, so this is more in fruit than flowers after the ethereal Chambolle. There is enough depth of fruit here, both on the nose and palate, followed by a fresh finish, fruit plus acidity with also a light tannin or two.

The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos de la Maréchale is showing nicely, delivering notes of sweet red berries, plums, orange zest and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, pretty palate with a lively core of fruit and melting tannins. This represents a return to rather more classical proportions for this cuvée. (WK)
