Note di degustazione
Medium red, with an unfiltered appearance. Medicinal cherry, licorice, fresh herbs and spicy oak on the nose. Succulent and sweet in the mouth, showing good breadth to its cherry fruit. Nicely integrated acidity gives the wine good shape in the mouth but the dusty tannins are a touch herbal in the early going. Still, this wine should offer relatively early appeal owing to its attractive floral lift.

Sweet and gentle. Very charming with the oak still slightly in evidence. Cloves. I wonder where the oak came from? Still quite youthful. (JR)
(from vines just on the edge of Echézeaux):Bright ruby-red. Aromas of kirsch , spices and violet are complicated by a slightly meaty quality. Surprisingly supple in the middle palate, showing intense black cherry and licorice flavors, then turns tough on the back end, with the oak-driven tannins cutting off the fruit. Shows a caramel quality from the barrels (50% new). An awkward showing today, and in need of longer élevage .
The 2014 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru comes from three sources and it had been racked a fortnight before my visit into older barrels. It has a very composed bouquet with cranberry and wild strawberry, floral aspects developing with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple red berry fruit, good volume with a refined finish. This is a fine Clos Vougeot that should age well.
