Score 88/100 · Neal Martin

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Quite deep in color, Michel Gros’s Clos de Vougeot Grand Maupertui has a herbaceous but not vegetal bouquet with assiduous use of stems that lends freshness and vigor. Tertiary and cigar-box tones dominate the aromatics, but with time those broody red and black fruit begin to emerge. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins, well-judged acidity and a harmonious, quite silky finish that is showing just a little too much toasty oak at the moment. Give this Clos de Vougeot another year in bottle. Nov 2014, www.robertparker.com
