Wild cherry and forest earth explode from the glass with haunting intensity. Chalky minerality and vibrant acidity create a framework of stunning elegance. The palate shows remarkable depth despite frost damage, with layers of dark fruit and savory spice that build endlessly. A triumph from a difficult vintage that may define Mugnier's legacy.
