Mugneret Gibourg Nuits St Georges Chaignots
| Vintage: | 2020 |

| Description: | Decanter 95 Points - "a remarkable result, with bright red and black berry fruit aromas, accented with notes of flowers and spice. On the palate, the wine shows plenty of grip but also a thoroughly pleasant balance. The Mugneret sisters have a parcel of 1.27ha of old vines in Aux Chaignots, reasonably high on the slope. They explain that in 2020 these vines suffered from the drought conditions and ripening was blocked in August. Drinking Window: 2025-2040.". Vinous 92 - 94 Points - " The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru suffered quite a lot during the summer according to Christine because of the dryness. Nevertheless, it has an exquisite bouquet with beautifully defined, minerally red fruit that seems to blossom in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, an almost citric bead of acidity with a lively and sustained finish. Wonderful. Drink: 2025-2045. (Dec 2021)". Wine Advocate 93+ Points - "Tasted in bottle, the 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is another success, offering up aromas of cassis and other dark berries mingled with notions of rose petals, spices and forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, supple and layered, it's seamless and enveloping, with a bright spine of acidity and a long, saline finish. While it's deceptively open out of the gates, given its concentration and freshness, I suspect it may shut down in the near future." |
