"This is a great vintage of Musigny in the making."

"A giant amongst the 2021 Grand Cru red Burgundies"

Critic Scores

97 // John Gilman

"The 2021 Musigny “Vieilles Vignes” from Domaine de Comte de Georges de Vogüé is a brilliant wine in the making. The bouquet soars from the glass in a blaze of red and black cherries, sweet stem tones, gamebird, iron, mustard seed, woodsmoke, a beautiful base of limestone minerality and cedary oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and vibrant, with a great core of fruit, stunning soil inflection, ripe, suave tannins and impeccable balance on the long, focused and beautifully complex finish. This is a great vintage of Musigny in the making. (Drink between 2035-2100)."

97 // Vinous

"The 2021 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru underwent a picked piecemeal from the 30 different plots to find the best order that actually was linked to vine age. It has a gorgeous bouquet with brambly red fruit, loam, blood oranges and subtle graphite aromas. Superb delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, fresh citrus like acidity, tensile and focused. This is a very classic, mineral-driven Musigny with surfeit of salinity that gets the saliva flowing on the finish. So bright on the finish. (Drink between 2027-2048)."

97 // James Suckling

"A giant amongst the 2021 Grand Cru red Burgundies, but still a sleeping giant. In spite of the stunning concentration on the rather full-bodied palate for the vintage, the stony minerality and bright acidity gives this great drive at the very long finish. A hint of green pepper from the use of whole clusters on the nose. Try from 2026."

97 // Tim Atkin MW

"Concentrated and serious on the nose with crushed silex, grated spices, bramble and black plum, the palate is surprisingly finessed with graceful acidity and svelte tannins. Yet, it is as intense as ever and easily needs a decade to begin unwinding its almost ferocious fruit density. Jean Lupatelli is working on understanding the differences in the many geographic segments of the domaine's large holding, which will add additional finesse in the cellar work in the years to come"

97 // Jasper Morris MW

"Three tanks were made, in order of picking, then assembled as there is no terroir logic to them, though this has changed for 2022. A fine bright and reasonably deep purple. Classy with just a touch of pepper. Less immediately compelling that some previous vintages, but it is growing steadily in the glass. There is a huge volume of red and black fruit intertwined with a fresh mineral streak running through the middle, supplying excellent length to complete the job. Splendid stuff! A firmer finish but there is plenty of time for that to resolve. Drink from 2030-2040."

Description
Domaine Comte Georges de VogÃ¼Ã© can trace itâ€™s lineage back over 550 years, to 1450 and the Chambolle vines of one Jean Moisson. Highly regarded as the greatest estate in Chambolle Musigny, today the domaine is headed by its 20th generation â€“ Claire de Causans and Marie de Ladoucette, the grand daughters of the late Comte Georges de VogÃ¼Ã©.

The philosophy at de VogÃ¼Ã© is one which tries to blend tradition and modernity. Nothing is done systematically in either the vineyard or the cellar. There is a constant adaptation to both vineyard and vintage conditions. De VogÃ¼Ã© see themselves as intermediaries: nature is the boss, and they are the guardians of the wine.
