Region: Burgundy, France

Vintage: 2020

Composition: Pinot Noir

History: Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret is a Burgundy estate with a long history of making fine Pinot Noir wines in Vosne-Romanée. Pinot Noir is the most significant variety in the portfolio, supplemented with a small number of white wines made from Chardonnay and Aligoté. The white wines tend not to come from the more prestigious grand and premier cru-designated vineyards that the domaine is famous for.

Tasting Notes: Just like the precision and know-how of the best watchmakers, each bouquet from our Grande Complication is expressed with purity and authenticity. First, the wild berries – intense blackcurrant and lively raspberry- reveal all of the splendour of this selection of grains. Then, the subtleness of the aromas comes out as sweet spicy notes. Then there’s silence. Harmony, power, finesse and purity blend in a precious and complex movement. The scale of the site is perfectly calibrated and the grandeur of the Pinot Noir is sublimating. Our Grande Complication requires time to express itself with the emotions more intense as this exceptional quest goes on.
