Detailed Description
The violet and blueberry-scented, medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Musigny has a medium to full-bodied personality. It bursts from the glass with massive waves of raspberries, plums, hints of fig, and licorice. This is an opulent, sweet, lush, and softly textured wine that is super-ripe. Its firm, tannic backbone is encased in loads of sur-maturite fruit.

Producer Information
Domaine Jacques Prieur is a relatively large Burgundy producer that makes both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from esteemed vineyard holdings across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune.The history of the domaine began in the 1860s, with the marriage of Claude Duvergey and Marie Taboureau. They first established the wine and spirits merchant business, Duvergey-Taboureau House, before buying property in Meursault – now the site of the modern Jacques Priuer domaine.Beginning in the late 1800s and continuing into the 20th Century, the family began investing in viticulture and purchasing vineyards, establishing vines in what have become some of the most sought after appellations in the Côte d’Or.
