Tasting notes
Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has a more high-toned bouquet with touches of cassis infusing the brambly red fruit, though it does not possess the complexity of the best Clos Vougeot this vintage. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy with good depth, juicy ripe tannins encasing the cranberry and strawberry fruit, a touch of spice carrying the finish over the line. It is just a little ... predictable, but well made. Tasted September 2016.

On the nose, the sexy cherry-jam style of Clos Vougeot is welcome after the more austere Gevreys. But the palate is tart and reedy – a crashing disappointment after the nose. (AH)
