Note di degustazione
The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has slightly darker fruit on the nose: blackberry leaf, cranberry and a touch of sous-bois . It opens nicely in the glass, and the oak is well integrated and becomes more opulent. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh entry and sour cherry mixed with graphite notes. There may be more limestone soils here, as there is noticeable acidity and nerve on the finish. Very fine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

There is a hint of bitter chocolate to the ripe aromas of plum, wild red berries, warm earth and whiffs of violet and anise. Once again there is excellent volume to the bright and vivacious big-bodied flavors that possess fine mid-palate density on the silky but punchy, lingering and impeccably well-balanced finish that is supported by even firmer tannins. Lovely.
The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is raised with 70% whole bunch and around 80% new oak. Here, I feel that the stems are just jutting out a little more compared to the Grands Echézeaux and slightly obscures the terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip, fine backbone, perhaps without the same amplitude on the finish as either the Echézeaux or its "big brother". Still, this will give two or three decades of drinking pleasure.
