1959 Domaine Comte de Vogue Musigny Burgundy

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is one of the most famous producers in Burgundy, with a lineage dating back almost half a millennium in the Côte d'Or. The family is part of the history of the village of Chambolle-Musigny, where it produces elegant wines made from Pinot Noir.

The self-proclaimed Domaine de Musigny, de Vogüé has around 70 percent of its land in the Le Musigny Grand Cru vineyard and 6.5 acres (2.7 hectares) of Bonnes-Mares. Vines are also held in the famous Les Amoureuses Premier Cru vineyard, as well as Les Baudes and Les Fuées, although these are often used to make the village-level wine.

Musigny's steep slopes and stony, friable soils, and winemaker Francois Millet's minimally invasive techniques, combine to produce a heavily fragranced wine with notes of violets, raspberries and blackberries. The wine, which is one of the most expensive in Chambolle-Musigny, is highly collectable and has the ability to age for decades. The Bonnes-Mares wine, on the other hand, tends to be more robust, with more direct fruit and stronger tannins.

Burghound

Burghound 93 BH - 1959 Domaine Comte de Vogue Musigny Burgundy This beautiful bottle is in excellent condition! Bricking with only a bare core of ruby. The airy and perfumed nose displays a hint of lactic and VA but is much less evolved than the Bonnes Mares and the VA is by no means as pronounced with pretty and nicely complex fully mature aromas of leather spice earth and ample sous bois that precedes the sweet round and elegant medium full and very rich flavors that coat the palate and feature an unusually precise finish for the vintage. This is really quite lovely and while there is some warmth on the backend it is not enough to detract from the overall appeal. I would be drinking this soon as there is no where to go but down. Consistent notes. BH
