Allen Meadows’ Burghound.com:

This is also quite reserved at present with an elegant, airy, cool and pure nose that is kaleidoscopically complex as it offers red currant, plum, black cherry and a panoply of floral and spice notes, in particular violet and anise, before marrying seamlessly into mineral-driven and alluring big-bodied flavors that explode on the powerful and almost painfully intense finish that delivers genuinely stunning length. I love the way Musigny can so effortlessly combine a silky palate impression with serious muscle. This should be quite impressive in time though note that it will need a minimum of 18 to 25 years of cellar time. Rating 96/100. -Allen Meadows’ Burghound.com-

Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

The 2008 Musigny Vieilles Vignes is a wine I could smell all day. The explosive bouquet literally jumps from the glass, followed by deep, beautifully delineated layers of fruit. This shows terrific concentration and depth, dazzling finesse, and a nicely pointed, direct finish. It is an eternal wine. Drink Date 2023-2048. Rating 97/100. -Antonio Galloni-

Vinous:

Bright red-ruby. Wonderfully high-pitched nose combines dark fruits, white pepper, flowers and iodiney minerality. The palate offers extraordinary sappy sweetness with almost painful energy and razor-sharp precision. Really saturates the palate with mineral dust without leaving any impression of weight. Magically long wine with great grip and lift. I found myself wishing Millet would bottle this without an extra racking. Rating 94-96/100. -Stephen Tanzer-
