Robe rouge presque noire mais assez légère. Nez racé, un peu fumé, poivré et fruité léger. Superbe toucher de bouche avec de la fraîcheur, de la droiture et de la gourmandise à la fois, avec un fruit joliment intégré mais bien présent et tout en finesse. Je revois mon appréciation d’il y a 4 ans à la hausse. Très bel Aloxe Corton!

Now this wine was really in a good place. Nose of violets, dark cherries and some blue fruit. Cedar and some nicely integrated oak elements aromatically. Just a faint hint of forest floor and also some black tea. The palate is smooth but with good length, not muscular but on the other hand not light on its feet either... Again cherries and some blue fruit elements. Smooth and well integrated wood tannins. It is drinking great now, but could easily be cellared for 2-4 years...

Musique & Vin Wine Tasting (Château du Clos de Vougeot): Tasting, brief note. Both black and red fruit with firm tannins and some brooding character that makes it come across as rather firm. Good density, but less fun near-term.
