Description
From two parcels: Petit Maupertuis, with thin, limestone-rich soils, and Hautes Baudes, lower down the slope, with more clay and gravel. Each year the Clos Vougeot here tastes better, and it’s really good in this vintage: packed with sweet perfumed red fruit, it is lively, light and elegant, but deceptively so, since there is a powerful underlay of dark chocolatey tannin which drives it to a long smooth fruity/saline finish.
