The Musigny is slightly lighter than the Griotte-Chambertin, but nevertheless filled with finesse. It provides an expansive, savory, generous mouthful of wine.
Drouhin's oenologist told me the tannin and acidity levels of the wines were higher in 1988 than in 1985, but my tastings made me think otherwise. Perhaps as this wine recovers from bottle shock it will show more structure and acidity, and will be a more worthy candidate for long-term aging.
