The 2013 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has a more conservative bouquet compared to the Charmes-Chambertin ’13: dense black fruit laced with cassis, Chinese five-spice and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied with a lattice of fine tannins that lend this a feminine touch, silky in the mouth, with a very pure finish that does not have a hair out of place. It is not the most sophisticated Clos Vougeot of the vintage, but it is well crafted.
