Laurent Ponsot Clos De Vougeot Grand Cru Cuvee Du Cedre 750ml
| Vintage: | 2016 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Founded circa 1110 by the nearby Cîteaux Abbey, Clos de Vougeot represents the essence of Burgundy. This 50 hectare block of vines has been surrounded by the same stone walls for five centuries. Its wine is one of the flagship red Grands Crus. Its highly intense colour varies from raspberry red to deep garnet. The smoothness of the bouquet evokes the spring: a rose blooming at dawn, violets in the morning dew, and damp mignonette flowers. Although somewhat austere on the palate when young, fleshy fullness is combined with the elegant finesse of raspberry, wild mint, and even truffle… A piece of roast veal with moderately firm mushrooms is an ideal match for the tannins of a Clos de Vougeot without overpowering them.?Great length is a sign of a wine that will keep well (10 to 30 years, sometimes longer). |
