Firm dense purple with super saturated fruit first on the nose and then the palate. Deep dark cherries and raspberries but with life behind. Of course, the Clos Vougeot structure is there but the fruit is so intense - and not over-ripe - that this works really well. Very promising indeed.
James Suckling Tasting Report
The depth and complexity to this young Clos de Vougeot is impressive, to say the least. It’s fullbodied and layered with chewy, polished tannins and excellent berry, smoke, walnut and black-tea character. Just a hint of wild herbs. A wine that needs time to soften. Try after 2023.
Wine Enthusiast - Anne Krebiehl MW
The freshness of ripe, tart cherry is pervasive on the aromatic nose of this wine, backed by slightly toasty oak. Cherry notes get creamier on the palate where ripeness and freshness meet at a perfect juncture, favoring brightness just a little bit more. Fine tannins weave a firm, still slightly crunchy web but that is where the aromatic cherry hides, only to burst forth with freshness. It's elegant, concentrated, aromatic and smooth.
