1991 Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier Bonnes Mares

The only wine from Mugnier with adequate concentration and enough ripeness to provide some pleasure is the 1991 Bonnes Mares, but it needs to be consumed over the next 3-4 years. This firm can fashion immensely seductive, supple red burgundies that reveal copious quantities of oak and sweet, ripe fruit. Mugneret's 1991s are surprisingly light, to the point of being diluted. A Becky Wasserman Selection, various importers.
