Clos Vougeot le Grand Maupertui 2006 Anne Gros

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (92)

Tart but ripe black raspberry and cassis are allied to tobacco and singed meat in the Gros 2006 Clos Vougeot Le Grand Maupertui, which offers a flattering creamy richness yet an invigorating sense of vivacity. The bitter side of its black fruits, its meatiness, and stony notes gain prominence in the wine's long, formidably intense, and positively frisky finish. Such a youthfully charming and enticing Clos Vougeot you won't often encounter, although I am confident it will be worth following for at least a decade.

Starts out with a graphite aroma, shifting to black currant and violet flavors as this builds on the palate. Fresh and firmly structured, with a spice-filled finish.
