Note di degustazione
The 2016 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a very pretty and pure bouquet, the oak here deftly integrated and allowing the dark cherries, cranberry and raspberry scents to flourish. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins framing the pure confit-like red fruit, just a splash of balsamic towards the finish lending another welcome dimension. I suspect that this will mature with style and panache. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.

The 2016 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru was picked on 23 September and includes 35% whole bunch with 40% new oak. It has a very refined and harmonious bouquet with vivacious red cherry, wild strawberry and bergamot aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp and focused, not the greatest depth of all the Clos de Vougeots that I have tasted but I appreciate the energy and freshness locked into this wine. It should not require too much bottle age.
Blackberry and raspberry with subtle spice and an attractive peppery note to the finish. Not as complete as their Lavaux St-Jacques, but still has plenty of concentration and intensity. Sleek, polished texture. (RH)
