J.-F. Mugnier, Nuit Saint Georges Clos de la Marechale 2008

The Clos de la Marechale 2008 from J.-F. Mugnier is a true pleasure. The nose is very open with fresh vibrant red fruits – strawberries, red cherries and raspberries. On the palate fine minerality, a good fresh acidity – quite refined and balanced with more body than the Chambolle village 08 from Mugnier. The 2008 Marechale is perhaps not as big as the 2006, but the balance of the 2008 vintage really suits the terroir, and add some new dimensions of complexity to the wine. Thumbs up! – what a wonderful wine.

(Drink from 2019) – Fine – 90p

  The very best of 2022? In my view, the vintage at Domaine Mugnier is close to perfect, given the year’s conditions. Many writers will talk about the beautiful weather conditions, but in reality, 2022 was not a walk in the park. If there had not been a stroke of luck with a late rain, the ...

Mugnier made very hedonistic 2015s, and I was therefore very ...
