No detailed notes taken. This is quite powerful and intense with lots of dark red and dark berries, lots of meaty notes, smoke and minerality. While already quite harmonious and round today, this wine needs another decade to become softer and lighter. The substance and precision are quite impressive here.

Tasted at a restaurant in Beaune. Meaty profile initially, intense fruit of sour cherry, ripe in style and even adding elements of fresh fig. Slightly lactic, but also beautifully savory and herbaceous. Powerful, firm, juicy but masculine palate. Becomes softer with fresher red berry type of fruit with time in the glass.

Serious Burgundy night: My contribution. Popped and poured, this was good to go from the outset. Beautiful, intoxicating nose, the palate had the bright, sappy red fruit that I love in Burgundies. Seamless and so elegant - the ethereal, velvety nature of this wine made it stand out from the others tonight. Most voted this for WOTN, including myself.

Double blind tasting. A remarkable Clos Vougeot with no rough edges. Floral, smooth, and elegant with Grand Cru concentration, nobody on the table even come close to guessing the appellation. Co-WOTN out of 9 wines. Just realized I am sitting on a few bottles of ‘93 vintage inside long term storage, wines made by his father, a completely different era. Will be fun to compare in the future.
