Maxime Cheurlin Noellat Clos Vougeot Grand Cru (750ML)
From Clos de Vougeot
| Vintage: | 2020 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 95-97 Jm. From two neighbouring plots in Petit Maupertuis. Dark purple all the way through. Powerful, brooding but balanced. I was expecting the usual ungiving Clos Vougeot style but then the fruit explodes on the mouth, this is really singing. Just the right tannins, light acidity, ripe but perfectly judged. An excellent Clos Vougeot, with character! Tasted: November 2021.--Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. Georges Noëllat was the nephew of Charles Noëllat, who was once the proprietor of one of Vosne's greatest domaines-a domaine who made important contributions to Domaines Jean-Jacques Confuron and Hudelot Noëllat, and even formed the vast majority of Domaine Leroy. As of 1990, Domaine Georges Noëllat sold its production to Jadot and Drouhin for 20 years. Enter 20-year-old Maxime Cheurlin in 2010, who consequently took over the management of the estate from his grandmother. Cheurlin grew up in Champagne, but it seems Burgundy wine is truly in his blood as he is a nephew of the Jayer family and a cousin of Emmanuel Rouget's sons. Thus, he complemented his winemaking studies at the LycĂ©e du Viticole in Beaune with stages at Domaine Emmanuel Rouget and Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur in 2009. |
