"The '05 Musigny easily possesses the most aromatic breadth of any wine in the range with an utterly kaleidoscopic nose ranging from Asian spice to rose and violet-infused floral notes that are at once delicate, pure and seductive while complementing to perfection the rich, subtle, reserved and relatively understated flavors that are superbly precise and intense, all wrapped in a mineral-infused finish that is nothing but sheer silk and velvet. This is one classy wine that won't necessarily wow you with its power but the refinement and poise are riveting, indeed it is a Zen wine."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
