Robert Parker (91)

There are three barrels of 2010 Clos de Vougeot from the top, middle and bottom of the vineyard. The nose is more reticent than the Echezeaux at first, although it slowly unfolds with hints of powdered chalk informing the fresh red brambly fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a crisp, poised entry. At the moment it needs to develop a little more fruit and flesh in the middle that is a tad hard at the moment, although it should develop more fatness after bottling. The finish is precise, but conservative, perhaps a little more abrupt than the Echezeaux.

Reduction dominates the nose but here it seems evident that the fruit beneath the funk is quite ripe. There is excellent volume and richness to the big-bodied flavors that enjoy supporting structural elements that are also phenolically mature before terminating in an austere, powerful and impressively long finish. This is admirably pure and really quite fine, at least within the context of a youthful Clos de Vougeot, an appellation not known for finesse.
