Musigny Grand Cru - Louis Latour - 1978

The wine

At the heart of the Chambolle Musigny appellation and above Clos Vougeot, Musigny is one of the emblematic crus of the Côte de Nuits vineyards. It has a pure deep red ruby colour. As a young wine, its perfumes evoke violets and sweet fruits, which after a long cellaring become precious and complex: undertones of fallen leaves, earth and moss, together with gamey notes of leather, fur and sometimes meat. The sensations on the palate are incredibly fine and harmonious.
