The Story
Marie-Andree and Marie-Christine Mugneret-Gibourg made this wine. It is great. This 2001 is fully mature, from a vintage that made classically framed, savory Cote de Nuits reds rather than blockbusters, and the years have done their work. Dried red fruit now shares the stage with forest floor, rose petal and mushroom; the tannins have resolved and the finish goes on and on.
