2007 Comte Georges de Vogue Musigny Grand Cru Magnum

95 points - Burghound
The step up in class is unmistakable with gorgeously complex, even kaleidoscopic and superbly elegant red, black and violet aromas trimmed with a dazzling array of spices, earth and a hint of smoke that adds unmistakable luster to the round, intense, muscular and exceptionally stylish broad-scaled flavors that possess excellent power and a building intensity that develops from the mid-palate to the explosive yet seductive finish. I really like the purity of expression here on the sappy and mineral-infused finish that has a dusty quality from all of the dry extract that coats the firm tannins. This is a big '07 built on a base of firm minerality but it remains impeccably well balanced and should live for decades so patience is definitely a virtue if you are a potential buyer.

93-96 Points - Vinous
Good deep red. Pungent aromas of raspberry, strawberry, minerals, crushed stone and flowers, complicated by subtle notes of lichee and mango. A stony, chalky wine with terrific sappy precision and energy. Here the slightly exotic candied quality simply adds another aromatic dimension in the mouth, rather than suggesting any overripe character. This very firmly structured and vibrant wine finishes with exhilarating palate-dusting lift and explosive perfume.

Smoked meat and salt-, kelp-, and iodine-laced maritime mineral overlays to the sweetly ripe berry and pit fruit concentrate of de Vogue’s 2007 Musigny Vieilles Vignes make for a Pinot as intriguing as it is eager to caress and please. Plush, polished, and possessed of formidable sheer sap, it displays an energy and interplay seldom revealed in this vintage. A mineral savor of crustacean shell reduction keeps pace with nearly candied sweetness of berry fruit -- and keeps you salivating uncontrollably -- all the way to a distant finishing line.
