2018 Domaine Leroy Musigny Grand Cru

The 2018 Musigny Grand Cru is another monument in the making from Domaine Leroy. Unfurling in the glass a deep bouquet of wild berries, rose petals, spices, blood orange and musk, it's full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with huge reserves of concentration—"il y a du vin," observes Bize-Leroy—and ripe, powdery tannins. Deep and complete, it's unerringly balanced, concluding with a penetrating, perfumed finish. This is not simply built to age, but rather built for eternity; and yet there's nothing austere about this magical Musigny.
