The Winery

Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier

The Burgundian house of Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier is located in Chambolle-Musigny and is particularly known for its classic example of Musigny Grand Cru wine made from the Pinot Noir grape. The chateau’s history began in the 1880s when Frederic Mugnier established a successful company in Dijon known for producing aperitifs, absinthes, cassis, liquors and aromatized wine, and today, although producing vastly different products, is run by his great-great-grandson by the same name. Along with their grand vin, Jacques-Frederic Mugnier makes wine from Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru vineyard as well as two premier cru wines from Les Fuees and Les Amoureuses vineyard and a village level wine. Current winemaking methods do their best to honor the great terroir that they have acquired over the centuries in Burgundy.

Tasting Notes

WA91–93
Mint, violets, and blackberries can be discerned in the nose of the ruby-colored 2001 Musigny. It explodes on the palate, basting it with jammy strawberries, candied cherries, and hints of licorice. Medium-bodied, exhibiting outstanding clarity of fruit, as well as an exceptionally long finish, this is a seductive, well-structured wine. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2012.
