Clos de Vougeot
Grand Cru 2010

Grape Variety : Pinot Noir

Soil : Clay and limestone

Site : The vineyard is ideally located in the heart of the famous Clos de Vougeot, nearby the Chateau.

The Vintage 2010 : The weather at the start of summer was quite demanding. It became fine again from the end of August with much sun and a north wind, which aided concentration of flavours and gave rise to an exceptional phenolic maturity. The harvest commenced in mid-September in perfect conditions under an Indian summer. This results in red wines with a crunchy flesh and an explosion of red fruits marvelously combined with the minerality of the terroirs. Aged in French oak during 18 months

Tasting : Dark ruby colour. Intense aromas of black fruit mixed with spices Beautiful vanilla note. Powerful, complex and well-structured. Voluminous, dense, with a lot of energy. Elegant oak note and well crafted tannins. Outstanding persistence.

Food pairing : It is perfectly matched with red meat grilled or en sauce and all cheeses, especially the local cheeses like Epoisses or Citeaux.
