2019 | Drouhin Laroze | Musigny

A brooding and deeply pitched nose is comprised almost exclusively of cassis, plum, sandalwood and spice aromas. There is even better volume and richness to the velvet-textured middle weight plus flavors that brim with both dry extract and minerality while delivering excellent length on the moderately austere and built-to-age finish.

Reviews:

• Allen Meadows: A brooding and deeply pitched nose is comprised almost exclusively of cassis, plum, sandalwood and spice aromas. There is even better volume and richness to the velvet-textured middle weight plus flavors that brim with both dry extract and minerality while delivering excellent length on the moderately austere and built-to-age finish.

• Vinous: 2019 Musigny Grand Cru has a tightly would bouquet, nicely focused yet sultry at the moment prior to racking. The palate is elegant on the entry and soaks up the new wood.

Producer Information

Domaine Drouhin-Laroze is a producer in the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy that specializes in producing wines made from Pinot Noir. The domaine has its origins in vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin purchased in 1850 by Jean-Baptiste Laroze. Eventually Alexandre Drouhin took over the estate, bringing his family vines from Chambolle-Musigny and incorporating them under Domaine Drouhin-Laroze. Today the family owns 11.5 hectares (28.5 acres) of vines spread throughout Burgundy and is run by the fifth and sixth generation of the family. The domaine owns vineyards in six grand cru appellations in the Côte de Nuits: Musigny, Chambertin Clos de Béze, Clos de Vougeot, Bonnes-Mares, Latricières-Chambertin and Chapelle-Chambertin. It also has plots in four premier cru regions and three village appellations. The grapes are all hand-harvested and transported to the winery in Gevrey-Chambertin. Grand cru wines are aged in 100 percent new oak, premier cru wines in 50 percent new oak and village wines in first-fill barrels. All of the wines are bottled without fining or filtration.
