2018 Clos de Vougeot

The 2018 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru opens in the glass with a deep bouquet of cherries, raspberries, dark chocolate, spices and rose petals. Full-bodied, powerful and elegantly muscular, its enveloping core of fruit is underpinned by rich structuring tannins. Built for the long haul, this remains nicely balanced despite its decidedly broad shoulders. This cuvée derives from a parcel in Grand Maupertui and another in Les Chioures (next to Méo Camuzet's).
