About this Item

2006 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos de la Marechale
6 (1 x 6) 750ml

The domaine was founded in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier's great-great-grandfather. In November 2003 the premier cru Clos de la Marechale vineyard was returned after being leased out to Domaine Faiveley for 53 years. From being a small 4.05-hectare domaine, they tripled in size with the reacquisition.

Critics Ratings

'Saturated red-ruby color. Pure, vibrant nose features smoky black cherry. Rich, sweet and pure, with superb energy to the flavors of black and red cherry and minerals. Impressively dense, broad wine, finishing with excellent lingering perfume and solid spine for aging. In comparison to this wine, the 2005 version seems a bit easier.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com, 92/100 (2009)
