Score 94/100 · Drink 2028-2055, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Jan 2021
The 2018 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has turned out very nicely, unwinding in the glass with aromas of blackberries, cassis, dark chocolate, sweet soil tones and peonies. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's deep and youthfully reserved, with powdery tannins, succulent acids and chalky grip on the finish.

The 2018 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru "Cuvée Classique" displays good amplitude on the nose, incense and iris flower permeating the vibrant black fruit; there is real depth and complexity here. The mineral-driven palate is very well balanced with gentle grip and a chalky finish similar to the Vieilles Vignes. Superb.
