    Sometimes you want a Musigny, and sometimes you want a raunchy, peasant Burgundy. Craving the latter, I opened this. A wine that might have been overly coarse when young has smoothed over a bit with time, and is strong, savory, and agreeable. I’m surprised at the weight and heft present here, I daresay it won’t peak for 5-10 more years. (90 pts.)
