93 Burghound
This still closely resembles my original in-bottle review from 2013 with its exuberantly spicy and superbly fresh nose of red and blue pinot fruit and kirsch scents. The supple, pure and attractively energetic flavors possess very solid mid-palate density yet the mouth feel is really quite lacy while terminating in a harmonious, dusty and hugely persistent finish that displays a hint of citrus. This strongly mineral-driven effort is wonderfully poised, indeed it’s Zen-like. In short, this is terrific.

Very reticent but pure aromas of currant, raspberry, pomegranate, menthol and fresh spices; more red than black and a touch medicinal. Densely packed and saline, with knock out inner-mouth perfume of raspberry, pomegranate and crushed stone. Like a junior, and much more accessible, version of Musigny. Impressive energy and rising salty minerality on the very long finish. A great vintage for this bottling. (ST)

10- to 25-year-old Musigny vines! Real fruity density. Lots of well-toned muscle. Very pure with a dry finish but very charming fruit along the way. Slight bitterness on the finish. Actually for a De Vogüé wine this is almost playful! Lovely. Long. 17.5/20 points (JR)
