The 2010 Mongeard-Mugneret Clos De Vougeot Grand Cru Magnum 1.5L has an intriguing blend of ripe red berry fruit and floral aromas, complemented by earthy notes with a subtle hint of herbs. Its rich and full-bodied taste has an excellent mid-palate concentration, depth, and length, which is typical of this famous wine-growing region.
The magnum bottle size of 1.5L has its advantages as well. The larger size allows for slower aging and maturation of the wine, as well as maintaining a more consistent temperature within the bottle. Moreover, the magnum size is known to improve the appearance of the wine, enhancing its colour, aromas, and flavours.
However, this particular wine is still quite young and will require mid to long-term cellaring to reach its full potential. Once aged to perfection, it will be an excellent addition to any wine collection or enjoyed during a special occasion.
