Tasting Notes

A background touch of wood easily allows the ultra-fresh aromas of red currant, cherry, earth and tea to be appreciated. There is both good muscle and intensity to the broad-shouldered flavors that are shaped by unusually refined tannins in the context of what is typical for Clos de Vougeot plus the impressively long finish is also less youthfully austere than usual. Good stuff here.

Score: 92-94
