Note di degustazione
The 2015 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a beautiful, well-defined, complex bouquet of raspberry, wild strawberry, pain d’épices and minerals, mercurial in the glass and changing with virtually every swirl. The palate is sleek and smooth. There is obviously some seductive new oak at play here, but it is simpatico with the fruit and dovetails seamlessly toward the velvety long finish. Superb. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

(25 hectoliters per hectare): Full, dark red. Tight, primary, slightly reduced aromas of blackberry, blueberry, licorice and minerals. Densely packed, rich and broad; a distinctly horizontal, pliant style of Clos Vougeot, no doubt a function of the very warm, sunny vintage. Today this is sweeter and more open-knit than the Grands-Echézeaux but both of these wines should easily age for two decades or more. (Mallard noted that on some days this wine comes across as stricter, "more Cistercian.") Finishes with spicy, ripe tannins and terrific energy and length.
(production here was 25 hectoliters per hectare): Healthy bright, dark red. Knockout nose offers scents of kirsch and maraschino cherry, minerals, spices and white pepper. Tactile, chewy wine with an outstanding combination of sweetness, mineral verve and definition. Really bulletproof fruit here. Finishes very long and penetrating, with incredible energy and lift to its anise and spicecake flavors. These 2015s are wonderfully fresh and transparent to terroir .
