  October 27, 2022 - Redcurrant, faint farmyard, sweaty saddle. Perfume nose but palate was disappointingly weak, despite being a grand cru. I am generally unimpressed with 2014 reds in Côte de Nuits.

  December 23, 2020 - Posted notes on this in November. This is the second bottle to be opened from a six pack. Just brilliant! So good now !
  So well balanced and has the potential to improve even more over many years . A very impressive Clos Vougeot
  This wine makes you appreciate what the Clos Vougeot area can produce depending on who’s wine you buy!

  December 18, 2020 - Open up for 2 hrs,
  
  Appearance : Light ruby with legs
  
  On nose : pronounced intensity, red fruit : raspberries, black fruit : Chinese blue date, clove, lichorice, dry leafiness, vanilla oak, some spiciness, very complex.
  
  On palate : med flavour intensity, med+ acidity, then follow with unexpected med+ tannin, black fruit on front palate but a bit hollow and empty feeling on mid- palate. Some bitterness and savoury leafiness aftertaste, a hint of spiciness and med finishing.
  
  As a Grand Cru from Clos Vougeot, I would say grapes may be collected from the upper part of the clos. The flavour is not that intensive and concentrated. The aroma is much better than on palate. May be it is too young to open. Keep it for 5 more years to see any further development. Cheers!

  November 15, 2020 - Well where to start? This is just drinking so well and is such a fabulous wine! Almost surprised at how accessible this is at this point in time. Medium red in colour, good acidity, a very prevalent / pleasant nose of dark fruit which I would have expected in a more older wine, so many flavours of dark fruits with a softness and fullness that coats the palate and lingers to give this wine a great length. Drinking so well now that I would probably not wait. This is so approachable ,a wonderfull Clos Vougeot.
