2011 Bouchard Pere et Fils, Clos de Vougeot 750ml x 6 bottles

JG94

There are only three barrels of the 2011 Clos Vougeot from Domaine Bouchard Père et Fils, which is unfortunate, as this is a beautiful bottle in the making. The deep and youthful nose wafts from the glass in a refined blend of red and black cherries, red plums, bonfires, coffee, gamebirds, a superb base of soil and a nice framing of new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and complex, with a sappy core of fruit, suave tannins and absolutely stunning length and grip on the focused and still quite primary finish. This will be a magical Clos Vougeot in the fullness of time.
