Note di degustazione
(Bernstein described his parcel as "at middle altitude on the south side of the Clos"): Healthy dark red. Suave, perfumed aromas of black cherry, licorice, wild herbs and violet. Lovely cut and intensity to the juicy flavors of boysenberry, violet and spices. A step up in tension from the Charmes-Chambertin; in fact, this is youthfully imploded in a way that reminded me of a 2010. This wonderfully precise Clos Vougeot fills the mouth with perfume and spreads out horizontally to dust the palate on the long aftertaste. There's nothing soft about this beauty but nothing hard either. A spectacular young Clos Vougeot. 95??

Tasted blind at Fine & Rare Wines' Clos Vougeot tasting, the 2013 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from Olivier Bernstein has a slight earthiness on the nose, less fruit-driven than Bertrand Ambroise but perhaps demonstrating more pinoté. The palate is fresh and vibrant with a fleshy core of strawberry and cranberry fruit. There is good tension here, nicely structured with appreciable mineralité on the finish.
Tasted blind. NHB (naughty heavy bottle). Deep crimson. Admirable freshness on the nose. Really racy style with massive energy apparent in the wine. Lightly sandpapery tannins. Really very fine. Edgy. Whole bunchy! (JR)
The 2013 Clos Vougeot is remarkably polished and harmonious. Expressive red stone fruits, iron and crushed flowers are laced together in an absolutely impeccable wine endowed with true personality and class. The typically firm Clos Vougeot tannins are there, but they are pretty much covered by the sheer intensity of the fruit. At once distinctive and super-expressive, the Clos Vougeot is another of the stands outs in the range.
