Note di degustazione
The 2017 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is well defined and precise, with cranberry, raspberry and vibrant red cherry scents that soar from the glass. The oak here is very well assimilated. The well-balanced palate offers fine but firm tannins that frame the black cherry and raspberry fruit. Lovely tension and mineralité on the finish, which delivers just the right amount of spice and length. Excellent. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.

The 2017 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is matured with 60% whole bunches, in around 85% new oak. This boasts the best aromatics of the domaine’s range of 2017s, a very detailed mélange of red and black fruit with subtle floral aromas. The pure palate is medium-bodied with silky-smooth tannin, fine depth, superb mineralité and a precise, complex finish. This is the standout from d’Eugénie this year, thanks to the energy already tangible from barrel.
Aromas of orange rind, raspberries and cassis mingle with savory nuances of espresso roast, dark chocolate and grilled squab, introducing the 2017 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru, a full-bodied, multidimensional wine with good concentration, succulent acids and rich but satiny structuring tannins that concludes with a long and nicely defined finish. This is a very promising wine from Domaine d'Eugénie that I'd expect to land at the upper end of my banded score.
