From Domaine Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, the 2009 Nuits-St-Georges Clos de la Maréchale Premier Cru feels like dark velvet: generous black cherry and ripe red fruit wrapped in spice, a touch of earth and a firm, muscular frame that still carries the house’s trademark grace. The warmth of the vintage shows in its openness and seduction, yet there’s enough backbone and depth to keep it serious and ageworthy.

Nuits‑St‑Georges Clos de la Maréchale Premier Cru from Domaine Jacques‑Frederic Mugnier is a monopole Pinot Noir from the Premeaux sector of Nuits‑St‑Georges, drawn from nearly 10 hectares of mature vines on limestone‑clay soils. Typically combining the firm structure and mineral depth of Nuits with Mugnier’s signature finesse, it delivers red and dark berry fruit, floral notes of iris and lilac, and refined, chalky tannins that reward several years of cellar age.
