Domaine Comte Georges De Vogue Musigny Cuvee Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru 2012 represents the pinnacle of Burgundian winemaking, reflecting centuries of dedicated stewardship and an unwavering commitment to terroir transparency. Crafted exclusively from old vines aged over 40 years within the prestigious Grand Cru Musigny vineyard, this wine embodies the rare expression of a single, iconic terroir renowned worldwide for producing some of the most elegant and age-worthy Pinot Noir.

The 2012 vintage benefits from meticulous vinification techniques, including partial whole cluster fermentation, which enhances aromatic complexity and structural finesse. The wine undergoes modest oak aging and an extended élevage period, allowing the fruit to develop harmoniously with subtle hints of spice and earth, all while preserving the purity of varietal character. This careful balance results in a wine that is both powerfully expressive and remarkably refined.

Sourced from a premium private cellar, this bottle offers a unique opportunity to experience Domaine de Vogue’s legendary craftsmanship and the profound depth Musigny is celebrated for. The 2012 vintage is distinguished by its well-structured tannins and vibrant acidity, reflecting the cooler growing season that yielded wines with exceptional aging potential and freshness.

Ideal for collectors and connoisseurs seeking a masterpiece of Burgundy, this Grand Cru delivers layered aromas of red berries, forest floor, and subtle floral notes, followed by a rich yet silky palate with impressive length and complexity. Domaine Comte Georges De Vogue Musigny Cuvee Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru 2012 stands as an extraordinary testament to the heritage and finesse that define the very best of Côte de Nuits.

Reviews

Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Musigny Vielles Vignes Grand Cru from de Vogue has slightly brighter and more vivacious fruit than J-F Mugnier, and in fact, the two wines seem to go in two different trajectories in the glass, this blossoming and the other becoming more occluded. De Vogue's Musigny is unashamedly floral in style, very elegant and yet delineated. There is a noticeable estuary scents, mudflats and seaweed, that begin to permeate the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannin, wonderful acidity and succinctly integrated new oak that is barely tangible. It is intense but elegant, long and tender in the mouth. It is a fabulous Musigny, one of the best that the domaine has produced in recent years.
A brooding but gorgeously spicy nose is comprised of liqueur-like dark berry fruit scents that also display plenty of floral influence that includes notes of lavender, violet and, somewhat curiously, honeysuckle. There is outstanding concentration and punch to the seductively textured and marvelously intense big-bodied flavors that are borderline robust as the supporting tannins are dense but refined. I really like the Zen-like sense of harmony to the explosively long and pungent mineral-driven finish that really stains the palate. This is flat out remarkable.
