Ghost of Clos Vougeot: Green as kale. Vegetal. Palate is a little better with some red cherry, but this should generally be skipped. Bottles directly from the domaine.

(Haegelen-Jayer Clos de Vougeot) Medium, medium-plus cherry-red colour. High tones overlay a nose of considerable depth - earthy and cedar aspects and a slightly ‘lifted’ impression - but throughout our time together the nose remains completely understated. This wine bursts with excitement; it’s intense and the forward acidity makes it difficult to hold the wine in your mouth. The tannin is very well covered and the finish only slowly fades. It’s not as long as the best here but it’s not too far behind. This is an excellent bottle.
