92/94

Completely destemmed because rather too much rot. Attractive mid crimson purple. There is a fair intensity of fruit without too much detail. Quite full red fruit with a vanilla edge, a little bit drier behind, a touch of orange zest. Sound more than vibrant, but may have more development to come.

Like many other Clos de Vougeot, Vougeraie was lucky to have a relatively generous 34 hl/ ha yield. Sweet spice and cranberry chutney fill the nose and palate. There is a touch of old school, tannic rusticity along with the pleasantly refreshing acidity. This may not make old bones with its moderate concentration, but it is very classically Clos de Vougeot.

90/93

(from an exceptionally well positioned 1 ha parcel situated directly beneath Les Petits Musigny that is combined with another less well located .35 ha parcel close to the main road). A more deeply pitched nose speaks of plum, dark currant, newly turned earth and a touch of wood. There is very good size, weight and punch to the bigger-bodied flavors that offer very good length on the more structured finale that is a bit less austere than usual.

Fragrant and supple in texture, exuding wild strawberry, cherry, rose, sandalwood and cardamom aromas and flavors. Elegant in feel, with ample tannins for support and a vibrant, extensive aftertaste. Harmonious and charming, yet the length of the finish is what defines its pedigree.
