Clos de Vougeot Grand cru 2014

- 93 points -

Bright red-ruby. Very ripe aromas of black cherry, currant and earth come across as expressive and clean following the difficult Mazis. Then creamy and pliant in the middle palate, conveying a sweetness to its fruit that was blocked by new oak during the wine's sojourn in barrel. Turns noticeably more taut on the back end, which gives clarity and grip to the very long finish without any loss of sweetness. The wine's substantial broad, dusty tannins are supported by mid-palate richness. Really lovely balance here.
