Cask sample. Mid ruby. Grand cru restraint after the panache of the Aux Reignots. But tangible class and concentration. A mix of red and black fruits, strawberry, red cherry and cassis. Balanced fruit character and expression with moderate fresh acidity and fine tannins. A very fine grand cru. (MH)

The 2023 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a very succinct bouquet. It's one of the cuvées from Grivot with what feels like darker fruit than others. This is beautifully defined, with hints of sea cave/oyster shell and a dash of black pepper that manifests with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and velvety smooth, with pliant tannins, moderate depth and orange rind, blood oranges and a hint of cardamom toward the finish. This is quite a complex Clos de Vougeot that should age with style.

A more subtle application of wood is present on the ultra-fresh nose of crushed red berries and plenty of just turned earth character. The sleek, succulent and equally generously proportioned larger-bodied flavors display excellent power on the impressively long finish that is classically austere, compact and built-to-age. I especially like the balance and this is a potentially great Clos de Vougeot.

Mid crimson. A certain weight to the fruit but nothing flamboyant on the nose. This is tight on the palate too, predominantly strawberry fruit with some liquorice behind and more evident tannins, though nothing harsh.
