FAIVELEY

Clos de Vougeot Grand cru 2011

- 97 points -

Like many of the best wines from this sprawling Grand Cru, Faiveley’s Clos de Vougeot combines grapes drawn from both the upper and lower parts of the vineyard. The result combines spiciness and zip with good texture and succulence. Blackberry, plum and sweet red fruits are supported by attractive oak and minerality. One of the best Pinots from the Clos. 2016-28
