The finer middle weight flavors aren’t as powerful though I like the vibrancy on the dusty

Medium-full bodied with its secondary nuances of wet earth

the vineyards limestone soils manage to impart the requisite acidity

hints of blood orange and white pepper on the aftertaste

but lacks the weight of fruit to really drive it on into the long term

Francois Lamarche, Clos Vougeot Vintage:2010 The finer middle weight flavors(from 3 different parcels, one at the bottom and two at the top but on opposite sides). A fresh, cool and perfumed nose of mostly red currant and cherry is liberally laced with notes of earth, underbrush and oak nuances. There is a very forward, even lush palate impression to the bigger, richer and more powerful flavors that also possess fine mid palate concentration though not necessarily better persistence. This too will need a few years of cellar
