Representing the third Mugnier estate-bottling of this monopole (long leased to Faiveley), the 2006 Nuits-St.-Georges Clos De La Marechale boasts deep, sweet black raspberry and dark cherry fruit tinged with vanilla; a plusher texture and at the same time greater clarity to nuances of peat, crushed stone, fruit pit, and mineral salts than exhibited by the 2005; and a long, soothing, yet refreshing finish. I suspect this will be worth following for the better part of a decade. It received 20% new wood, incidentally, no differently from Mugnier's other (including his grand-) crus. He vinified nine separate lots from this site's more than 20 acres, culling a portion (mostly from young vines) during the final assemblage to inform a second wine, which I have not tasted.

Excellent vigorous youthful colour, the fruit on the nose is very pure too and still young, red and purple in style. A wealth of juicy plum fruit with floral overtones, and then quite a raft of firm tannins but here the fruit will win easily. Food wine. Frédéric has changed his mind several times about this vintage. However, he quite likes the personality of the unpolished tannins.
