Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg is a leading wine producer based in the Côte de Nuits. Established in 1933, the estate takes its name from the founders André Mugneret [1905-1986] and his wife Jeanne Gibourg [1906-1997]. The domaine is not only known for its grand cru wines but also for high-quality and age-worthy village-level cuvées from Nuits-Saint-Georges and Vosne-Romanée. This 2012 Clos Vougeot is in a good place now, ripe and balanced, displaying notes of black cherries, violets and spices.

Vinous
Good medium red with a faint amber edge. Deeper-pitched on the nose than the '14, but with a lovely rose petal high note to lift its musky aromas of red cherry, raspberry and earth. Very rich, chewy, powerful wine with superb subtle sweetness to its sappy flavors of red fruits, orange zest, mocha, minerals, spices and soil. Finishes with substantial tannins that avoid dryness. This powerfully structured wine will require at least another five years for its spine of acidity to harmonize fully with its considerable flesh. A splendid wine of terroir but be patient!
