  Vougeraie Clos De Thorey 1er Cru Monopole 2018
  Quite a ripe nose of ripe red cherries, red berry fruits, hints of jam and clove. On the palate, ripe red cherries, clove, hints of licorice and bramble, with some hints of herbs, in a juicy and exuberant style. Certainly a ripe vintage with more body. 90/100

  Bright and pure red fruit, cherries and raspberry, layer of restrained minerals, spice and wood, clean and focused, grippy but silky tannins, fresh, but without great complexity and lacking a bit in tension and energy. Still young though…

  Smoky bouquet with herbs and spices and beautifully dosed oak. Same on the palate, good acidity and a pleasant touch of sweetness. Still quite youthful, but already delicious. Is still improving and will probably continue to do so the next 3 – 5+ years.

  Quite smooth, with a lively fruit character, but fragrant. I expect it will improve some more. 89+

  Sommelier Scholarship Fund Tasting (Popina - Brooklyn NY): Walk around tasting. Much less accessible than when tasted in March, this seems to be shutting down firmly and quickly, like many 2018s. Lots here, but this needs time.
