The 2014 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a clean and precise bouquet with lifted blackcurrant and wild strawberry, infused with violet and iris scents, all wonderfully defined. The palate is quite structured on the entry with brittle tannin, edgy and tensile with a surprisingly dense and grippy, slightly meaty finish that lingers in the mouth. There is a touch of rusticity here -- a swarthy Clos Vougeot for the vintage.
Very rich and confident ? perhaps the grandest wine I have tasted today ? with real reverberance and massively nuanced fruit.?
