    Another killer 10 pycm! Much better at this stage than the 12……crystalline yellow pitted fruit, clean and fresh with cream……amazing zip in the mouth…citrus pop rocks, lemon/lime acidity, crushed flintstone……salty minerals play well with the ripe fruit, touch of honey. Classic Meursault flint strike well integrated….wonderful white flower and lime blossom florals……pure and balanced. Makes Meur-so-horny! :wink: Love it! (94 pts.)

  • 1993 Jean-Pierre Mugneret Nuits St. Georges - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges (2/19/2015)
    An ex-cellar bottle……dark ruby, rose rim color….nose of dark berries, sous bois, smoked meat, dusty old cellar spice, little menthol. Nice nose! Still quite youthful in the mouth….silky smooth, yet a firm bite of spice and tannin……might have seen quite a bit of wood here? Really tasty darker berry fruit….savory, with a good amount of earth tones…forest, dust, dried leaves, cinnamon potpourri. Not a “pretty” 93…more masculine……nice subtle complexities of smoke, licorice, tea leaves, dried cherries. Pretty amazing Village wine here imo…….the ex-cellar youth is incredible. Glad to have a couple more left since there is plenty left in the tank! LOVE ex-cellar! (93 pts.)

That PYCM sounds unbelievably delicious.

5

Wow, that exceeds my expectations on the Mugneret. I have one standing in my queue.

6

This is my first time with this producer…also picked up some of the 99 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru ex cellar. You have any experience with any of these wines Craig, or anyone else?

That is a great PYCM.

This Mugneret is on the hautes-cotes…Concouer…above Vosne. Stayed there one year. V. imp to know first names in Burgundy…esp. with names that are both esteemed and common. No idea who he is…though.

Apparently this estate came up before. TN: 2002 Jean-Pierre Mugneret Echezeaux - WINE TALK - WineBerserkers

I did a google search and found my own post.

^ I have a bottle of Echezeaux 2002, same one that is commented on the link that Stuart posted.

Apparently, Jean-Pierre Mugneret retired after the 2005 millésime. His vines were sold or are en fermage with domaine Nudant.

From what I could read (not much comments on his wines), they are pretty good but not great. I also have an Echezeaux 1988 that I’ll open next week-end, will report.

No, first one for me. Hope to try it within a week or so.

I have mine open now. It’s a very robust, rustic wine, say Grand Cru depth with Villages elegance. There is a pretty strong iron/rust streak in the flavor, which I like. It seems like one of those wines that will be interesting to a very old age. High acid, high tannin, high extract.

12

Glad to hear that about this specific PYCM, I’ve backed away from buying it a few times after reading some less than stellar reviews of Narvaux bottlings (to be clear, not regarding PYCM). I guess I’ll have to try.

13

Nice! Is yours from the same ex cellar stash? Drink the whole bottle tonight…mine next day wasn’t so kind…prunes.

14

I assume yours came from Envoyer last year? That’s where mine are from. We drank most of it tonight.
