Note di degustazione
The 2017 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has a very floral, rose-petal-scented bouquet, quite flamboyant and impressively delineated, yet it just lacks a bit of grace. The palate is sweet and candied with saturated tannins and fine acidity, but comes across a little monotone on the creamy-textured finish. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.

Offering up a deep bouquet of wild berries, cassis and plums mingled with grilled game, spices and woodsmoke, Domaine de la Vougeraie's 2017 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is full-bodied, ample and enveloping, its textural attack segueing into a voluminous mid-palate that's framed by ripe acids and velvety, almost melting tannins. While some bottle age will be rewarded, this is a very accessible Clos de Vougeot that's more about amplitude and finesse than overt structure.
The 2017 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru comes from 1.05 hectares of vine in two parcels. This year contains 50% whole bunch fruit. The tightly-knit bouquet was showing some reduction when I tasted it from barrel. The palate is more representative: quite grippy and masculine, saline on the back palate, with a spicy, sage- and oregano-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth. Give this three or four years in bottle.
