A Toronto based consignor and storage client at Iron Gate who began collecting wine in 2007. Purchased through the LCBO, SAQ, and on trips to Europe, the bottles have all been meticulously cellared in temperature and humidity-controlled environments.
The tasting note for 1990 Domaine J F Mugnier Le Musigny Grand Cru is from Allen Meadows, The Burghound and the score is 92 - This most recent bottle showed notably better compared to another one consumed in 2005 because while as I noted that this is not a particularly elegant Musigny (particularly by the ultra-refined standards of Mugnier), there is much better depth. A very ripe nose and now fully mature nose stops just short of surmaturité now evidences the first hints of sous bois that gives way to exceptionally rich broad-shouldered flavors that are supported by relatively resolved and solidly ripe tannins, all wrapped in a balanced and lingering finish. This is impressively rich and dramatic Musigny, it's not in the same league as some of Mugnier's very best vintages.
