    Domaine François Lamarche, Clos de Vougeot, Grand Cru, 2010

    Incredibly long and with an intense vibrancy you don’t normally get with Clos Vougeot, this is a stunning example; deep, broad and structured but smooth and refined, plummy yet precise, sweet wild berry fruits, dark cherry with hints of raspberry. Excellent. A blend of three parcels within the Clos de Vougeot, one from the bottom part of the vineyard, one from the middle on the Vosne side and one higher up near to the Château.

    The 2015 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has perhaps the most succinct bouquet of 16 peers tasted blind, offering very discreet red and black fruit intermixed with pencil lead, sous-bois and dried orange peel. The palate is very well balanced, displaying a fine bead of acidity, traces of graphite and brown spices, filigreed tannin and a poised, classy finish. This Clos de Vougeot testifies to some top-notch winemaking craftsmanship. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
