Comte Georges de Vogüe Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru 2014

Comte Georges de Vogüe Musigny Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru 2014
Even in a season celebrated for its crystalline lift, Musigny stood apart in 2014, layering tension over silken depth. Comte Georges de Vogüe’s old-vine cuvée channels that energy into a seamless weave of limestone spice and floral nuance, its 45-year-average plants digging deep into the Côte’s stony heart. With less than 1 000 cases typically bottled, each release feels more whispered-about than seen, heightening the aura that already clings to Burgundy’s most storied Grand Cru. Cellar patience promises decades of unfolding detail and rarefied grace.

The Domaine
Founded in 1450 and now guided by the 20th generation, Comte Georges de Vogüe is Chambolle-Musigny’s defining voice. Organic-leaning viticulture, horse ploughing and classical élevage yield wines that marry filigreed perfume with cathedral-like longevity. The estate’s vast Musigny holdings give it an unparalleled lens on this hallowed slope, yet allocations remain painfully small—treasures for collectors who prize finesse over force.
