Comte Georges de Vogue is the preeminent estate of Chambolle-Musigny, owning 70% of the Grand Cru Musigny vineyard itself. The Cuvée Vieilles Vignes represents the domaine's flagship expression—a remarkably potent, robust, and balanced wine from old vines. The 1990 is legendary, a benchmark vintage only entering its prime. The wine shows a palette of red fruit jam, violets, spice, and coffee—aromas that define this Grand Cru's perfumed character. This is a wine of complexity and power, now mature and fully realized, a testament to the domaine's commitment to quality maintained across 20 generations of family stewardship.

"The 1990 Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has always been a controversial wine. This is my fourth bottle and I continue to side with those that feel it was overhyped on initial release. It comes across as a ham-fisted wine. For a start, it has an archetypal dead fruit nose, drained of vigour and energy, sultry with cedar and burnt toast, as if aping a Bordeaux. The palate is dense and excessively tannic. It still has a vice-like grip, yet it is bereft of tension and precision, leaden towards the finish. I have never liked what ought to have been a great Musigny and touted as such in some quarters. Now at 28 years old, it is not going to get any better. Tasted at the La Paulée in Beaune." —Neal Martin

"This wine demands another 6-7 years of cellaring. Oddly, about three years ago it was giving signs of maturing quickly, but it has now completely shut down. The Bordeaux-like, saturated dense ruby/purple color is followed by a tight-fisted nose and flavors of black fruits, underbrush, minerals, smoke, and new oak. Although extremely concentrated, the wine is broodingly backward, and not fun to drink ... yet. This loaded effort should prove to be one of the longest-lived red Burgundies made in the last twenty years." —Robert M. Parker, Jr.

More about Comte Georges de Vogue

One of Burgundy's most historic addresses, Comte Georges de Vogüé farms the great Bonnes-Mares vineyard on the Chambolle side of the boundary, where soils have more red clay than Morey's marl and limestone. These are wines of silk and structure—never showy, always worth the wait. Three generations of the same approach: let the terroir speak. The wines age forever but they drink beautifully when young. That's the mark of real Burgundy.
