terrific thrust and sneaky rising floral perfume

fruitcake and sandalwood over a core of preserved plums

redcurrants and blackberry compote with touches of licorice

spices and tar emerge

super-rich

Joseph Drouhin, Clos Vougeot Vintage:2021 terrific thrust and sneaky rising(Drouhin owns . 91 ha in two parcels that are rarely blended as the lower portion is typically sold; 30% whole clusters). Here too there is a poached plum character to the slightly fresher nose of earth and soft wood nuances. There is good punch and solid density to the muscular medium weight plus flavors that coat the mouth on the lightly stony and youthfully austere finish. This is quite firm and will need extended patience. (90 93)2032+
