Light as a feather, expressive, cool blue fruit with hints of green, tobacco and chalk. Understated and elegant, this has always been a joy to drink. I know it sounds like a cliché, but this is very Burgundian in style. Exceptional stuff.

Wine Workshop: Focus on Clos Rougeard (Cafe Evergreen): Crisp and young and bright and spice and a hint of green and maybe just a background of fruit although this is more in the vegetal style and yet it’s just lovely and delicious as well. Glad to see that we own a few of these. They will keep for a long time.

blind I guessed first Bordeaux, than Burgundy. And when you are both times wrong then it could be Clos Rougeard. The Cab Franc gives the Bx nose (after green pepper) and the elegance of Burgundy. Great aged in phantastique shape. 94-95

Will second others saying that this still seems quite young. Enjoyable now but I think there is more to come in 5-10 years.

Cool, chalky, elegant with plenty of playful sweetness behind. En danseuse. Still young. From PB (again)
