While not quite a dramatic in its fruit expression as the Bourgogne, this has a lovely harmony in the interplay of red and black fruit, lovely depth and a real finesse to the finish. Drinking range: 2028 - 2038 L&S (Nov 2021)

A rich, exotic aroma, into a juicy, ripely rounded, full, and expressive palate, with a hint of the spice-market wafting on the finish. Drinking range: 2024 - 2030 Rating: 88-89 World of Fine Wine Magazine (Apr 2022)

The 2020 Vosne-Romanée Village wafts from the glass with aromas of cherries, wild berries, dark chocolate and spices. Medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety, it's rich and dramatic, with a lavish core of fruit, ripe tannins, lively acids and a long, saline finish. Rating: 90-92 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2022)

(from 5 different parcels located in La Columbière, Champs Goudins and Le Pré de la Folie, which are contiguous vineyards located below the village and above the Route Nationale). This is also exuberantly spicy with its array of poached plum, black raspberry and violet-scented nose. The succulent and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors possess fine mid-palate density while delivering impressive length on the mouth coating, dusty and slightly raspy finale. This isn’t elegant but it is an unusually powerful Vosne villages and worth a look provided that you expressly intend to cellar it as it’s not likely to make for especially interesting early drinking. Drinking range: 2028 - Rating: 89-92 Allen Meadows, www.Burghound.com (Jan 2022)

Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg

Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg was founded in 1933 on the marriage of Jeanne Gibourg and André Mugneret. Holdings then consisted of Bourgogne, village Nuits, village Vosne and Echezeaux. Their son Georges, an opthalmologist by day, added to the vineyards, but his acquisitions (Nuits 1ers Crus Vignes Rondes and Chaignots, Chambolle 1er Cru Feusselottes, and Grands Crus Clos Vougeot and Ruchottes Chambertin) were kept separate as Domaine Georges Mugneret.

On Georges' death in 1988, his widow Jacqueline and daughter Marie-Christine took over. Marie-Andrée, the younger daughter joined them a little later having completed her studies as an oenologist. In 2009 Jacqueline retired and the two domaine names were put together to become Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg, ending the prior confusion of labels.

The sisters have proved more than safe hands as far as the winemaking is concerned, and these are top-flight Burgundies with that elusive balance of enough concentration allied with delicacy of expression and the capability to age well. All the vineyard management has been brought in-house (the domaine previously relied on two métayeurs for part of the vineyard) and the quality has reached new heights, its wines some of the most sought-after in the Côte de Nuits.

In 2017 Marie-Christine 's daughter Lucie joined the domaine, and Marion and Fanny, daughters of Marie-Andrée are now also part of the team.
