Avis professionnels

Jancis Robinson (18)

Parcel near the folly in the Clos Vougeot. 30% whole bunch (the smallest clusters with the ripest stems are selected). Cask sample.
Deep cherry red. Smells much fresher than the Clos de Bèze. More spicy, some mocha from the oak. Dark fruited and savoury. Thickly textured, a little bit oaky, but should come round to greater elegance. More embryonic than most but very long. (JH)

A deep if slightly sombre crimson. Not a lot of bouquet to start with. Quite a sweet plump fruit, with new oak adding the cream, but seems at first to lacks a little density for grand cru, though perhaps it is more a question of the refinement of the style. Drouhin’s Clos Vougeot probably just needs time, as more fruit emerges with extended aeration.
