2022, Domaine d'Eugénie, CLOS VOUGEOT, Grand Cru80% whole bunch vinification with 19 new barrels out of 26. A glowing purple with darker fruit showing along with a little new wood behind. This has power and tension, more tannins than any of its stable mates, a blacker style of fruit, good acidity. The tannins are firm, but this is just so much more backward than anything else in the cellar and will make a very fine CV in time. Drink from 2034 2045. **** 95 98 Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy.

salty minerality and spicy saffron

it has a very attractive bouquet with scents of dried quince

20% new oak for ageing

not hugely expansive in the mouth or particularly weighty but juicy with a really confident energy to it - vibrant and compelling

exerting a grip from the opening beats

It requires patience

Tannins are plump

has an intriguing bouquet with hints of peach skin and honeysuckle

large-scale stylings of Bibi Graetz

This is a decidedly small-scaled Bonnes Mares
