Clos de Vougeot 2015 Mugneret-Gibourg

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (97)

The 2015 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is a terrific rendition of this routinely stunning cuvée, soaring from the glass with a complex bouquet of red-black fruit, incense, rich soil tones, violets, smoked duck and a touch of menthol. On the palate, the wine is deep, full-bodied and multidimensional, with an ample chassis of rich, velvety tannins, a cool core of fruit and effortless balance through the long, penetrating and sapid finish. This Clos Vougeot is a monument in the making.

Cask sample. Toasty and black-fruited nose. Long spicy finish and plenty of fruit concentration on the mid palate. Combines fruit intensity with great structural balance – and avoids heaviness – but perhaps doesn't have all the bells and whistles expected from a grand cru. (RH)
