Produced from the famed Clos de Vougeot in the Cote de Nuits, this Grand Cru is everything that you look for in top shelf Burgundy, a flinty minerality, haunting depth of flavour and an ever changing expression in the glass.

The nose is delicate giving earthy cherry with developing forrest floor aromas, the palate has wonderfully balanced cherry fruit with a mineral core; the tannins are fine and firm providing a superb sappy framework from which lingering earthy spices take hold.

The finish is brimming with sour edged cherry and considerable length. This wine will develop even more over the medium to long term.
