Garnet red color with purple tints. The nose is particularly expressive and reveals complex aromas of ripe fruits (raspberry) and spices and roasted and smoky notes. On the palate, this wine proves very fine and elegant with wild fruit aromas (blackberry), spices, and subtle oak. Its length is remarkable.

"The 2022 Musigny Grand Cru contains 50% whole bunches and was raised entirely in new oak. It comprises four 150-liter barrels. Maybe that smaller size means greater wood impact on the nose: at the moment, it just occludes the fruit profile, the terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannins, dark berry fruit, black pepper, dark chocolate, mint, and a touch of cloves. The finish has fine weight and depth, although it will require a decade to soak up the new wood. It's a fine Musigny, but you'll need to taste this after time in bottle to gauge the quality.”
