The 2018 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has turned out very nicely, unwinding in the glass with aromas of blackberries, cassis, dark chocolate, sweet soil tones and peonies. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's deep and youthfully reserved, with powdery tannins, succulent acids and chalky grip on the finish.
Quite deeply colored. Liqueur-like dark currant aromas include hints of spice, warm earth and a whiff of violet. The relatively dense, muscular and powerful broad-shouldered flavors possess solid punch before terminating in a youthfully austere, complex and impressively long finish where a trace of warmth slowly emerges. This exhibits fine development potential so be prepared to be patient.
