1988 Domaine René Engel Clos Vougeot

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - Light, mature looking. Pungent, incisive aromas of stone, black fruit, perfume, and a tad of funk. Light to medium weight. You feel more than taste the fruit. Tannins have been tamed and the acids, while strong, are not tart or severe. Well etched wine with admirable intensity and length. At a plateau which should last for some time. An excellent '88 that shows that this vintage can definitely be worth the wait.
