2001 Vosne romanée Le Clos Goillotte

Served from magnum, the 2001 Vosne-Romanee Le Clos Goillotte is a very commendable wine for the vintage. It has an attractive fungal, sous-bois-scented bouquet with a touch of blueberry and wild mint. After 13 years, this is still fresh and has a pleasing purity. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and crisp acidity, with bitter red cherries defining the finish. What a splendid wine for the vintage. Drink now-2019. Tasted May 2014.
