Introducing the 1990 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue Musigny Grand Cru, a truly exceptional wine that embodies the essence of Pinot Noir. Hailing from the renowned Burgundy region of France, specifically the Cote de Nuits sub-region in Chambolle Musigny, this wine is the epitome of elegance and complexity.

As you pour this radiant red elixir into your glass, you will be captivated by its alluring hue, a Bordeaux-like saturated dense ruby/purple color that hints at the wine's depth and concentration. The nose, however, remains tightly wound, teasing the senses with a promise of the treasures that lie within.

Upon your first sip, you will be greeted by a symphony of flavors. Black fruits take center stage, accompanied by subtle notes of underbrush, minerals, smoke, and new oak. Each layer unfolds delicately, revealing the wine's intricate tapestry of flavors. The intense concentration of this wine is truly remarkable, a testament to the craftsmanship of the esteemed Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue.

Despite its current broodingly backward nature, this wine is a true masterpiece in the making. It demands patience and time, requiring another 6-7 years of cellaring for its full potential to be realized. While it may not be enjoyable to drink at this moment, it promises a glorious future.

Renowned wine critic Robert Parker's Wine Advocate shares our enthusiasm for this wine, awarding it an impressive score of 96 points. In his tasting note, he highlights the wine's concentration and predicts that it will become one of the longest-lived red Burgundies of the last two decades. Anticipated maturity for this exceptional vintage is between 2010 and 2025, making it a true gem for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Indulge in the splendor of the 1990 Domaine Comte Georges de Vogue Musigny Grand Cru, a wine that embodies the epitome of Pinot Noir excellence. With its extraordinary potential and impeccable pedigree, this wine is destined to be a coveted treasure in any wine lover's cellar.
