Mugneret-Gibourg wines are celebrated for purity, finesse, and depth — qualities that shine beautifully in the exceptional 2005 vintage, which continues to rank among the greatest in recent decades. Tasting Profile A seductive and refined nose showing red and black cherries, raspberry, rose petals, subtle exotic spices, sandalwood, and gentle forest-floor complexity. The palate is silky yet structured, with ultra-fine tannins, layered fruit, and a long, perfumed finish. A superb balance of Vosne-Romanée elegance and the powerful structure of 2005.
