1990 VINTAGE in Burgundy

This is probably the vintage of reference for many people in Burgundy. Exceptional climatic conditions allowed an abundant crop to mature perfectly and yield some most sensational wines in both red and white.

Written Notes

A shot of 1990 Vogue Musigny Vieilles Vignes quickly interrupted the Bordeaux courtesy of the Rapmaster, and this was better than usual. This has been a controversial wine for a while now, often coming across stewed, gamey and/or milky, but sometimes not. This was a solid wine, displaying some richness and robust qualities along with roasted red fruits. It was still a bit square and rugged, but I didn’t mind the flavor profile of this particular bottle. Perhaps this wine will always be a tale of two bottles (92).
  • 92p

This is a controversial wine. Bottles in Europe contrast with bottles I have tasted in the USA.

It is a wine I have sampled on many occasions – indeed I have some myself. In America a number of these have been weak and tired, making me wonder if the stock at the wholesalers was stored at too high a temperature. Those I have seen in France and England present no such problem: indeed the wine is very fine. Full bodied, quite meaty, still vigorous, crammed with ripe concentrated fruit and, above all, showing all the nuance and breed of this exceptional vineyard. Very lovely. Plenty of life ahead of it.
