Tasting notes
The 2010 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a pure, crisp, red cherry and cranberry-scented bouquet with wilted rose petals and incense developing in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with real depth and beautifully integrated oak. With a structured, gentle grip and a lovely judicious touch of black pepper toward the finish, this fans out wonderfully - a really classy Clos Vougeot through and through. Tasted at the Clos Vougeot tasting at Château de la Tour.

Good medium red. Reticent aromas of black cherry, licorice, mocha, coffee and underbrush. Sweet, fine-grained and intense, with terrific clarity and lift to the flavors of black cherry, crushed stone, spices and mint. Tannins are substantial but smooth and horizontal. The wine's savory, perfumed, very long finish really titillates the taste buds. This will need a good decade of cellaring.
The 2010 Clos de Vougeot opens with remarkably, perfumed aromatics. Sweet red cherries, hard candy, freshly cut mint and licorice are some of the nuances that add complexity on the palate. Ripe, silky tannins frame the elegant finish. This is a gorgeous, feminine Clos de Vougeot that impresses for its refined personality and sheer class. There is plenty of underlying material to support a long life in the cellar. In 2010 Méo-Camuzet assembled the wines from both of the domaine's parcels in Clos de Vougeot.
