• NOSE: Truly enchanting, there's no other word. Aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and wild strawberry, intertwine with notes of undergrowth, mushroom, and aged leather. Subtle hints of vanilla and sweet spices add an extra subtlety to this complex olfactory voyage.
• MOUTH: A refined and elegant tasting experience. The attack is soft and velvety, revealing a silky texture in the mouth. Flavors of red fruits unfold harmoniously, accompanied by notes of licorice, cocoa, and a delicate touch of cinnamon. The tannins are very well integrated, offering a balanced structure and a velvety sensation in the mouth. As for the finish, it feels like it would never end.

In short: This 1985 Musigny Grand Cru produced by the renowned Domaine Georges Roumier is a remarkable wine that ages with elegance. Its brilliant ruby red robe catches the eye, while its enchanting nose offers a complex range of aromas of red fruits, undergrowth, and sweet spices.

This vintage pairs ideally with delicate dishes such as duck with cherries, herb-crusted lamb chops, or soft cheese. It can be enjoyed now to appreciate its beautiful evolution, but remember that it still has additional aging potential in the cellar for another 5 to 10 years, for those who prefer even more mature wines.
