About this Item

2010 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Clos de La Marechale
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

Domaine Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier was founded in 1863 by Frédéric Mugnier’s great-great-grandfather. In 1985, Frederic – a fifth generation Mugnier – took over, and somehow managed to combine the running of the property with his job as an airline pilot. He now focuses his efforts solely on winemaking. The estate is renowned for its Chambolle-Musigny and is the second largest owner in Musigny.

Critics Ratings

‘An elegant, pure and still very primary nose reflects only a trace of maturity on the mostly red berry fruit, tea and soft earth aromas that are trimmed in all but invisible wood influence. The still strikingly intense medium weight flavors possess terrific delineation on the beautifully complex and persistent finish where the supporting fine-grained tannins remain firm but don't impart any austerity. While this could certainly be enjoyed now I would advise continuing to hold this for another 5 to 8 years as it's very much still developing. Drink 2022+.’ – Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92/100 (Jun 2017)
