Clos de Vougeot, Louis Latour 2022

Tasting Notes

Rich and dense, this red features black cherry, blackberry, black pepper, iron and oak spice flavors. Turns even firmer as this evolves on the palate before tightening up on the gripping finish. A powerful '22, this will need some time to unlock the buried fruit and complementing elements. Best from 2027 through 2046. 160 cases made, 50 cases imported.

Clos Vougeot can be a disappointing grand cru, but this shows how magnificent it can be. Wonderful Amarena cherry and summer flower aromas plus very fine tannins, which gives it a very suave personality. Restrained acidity in the 2022 context, but the finish is fresh and so very elegant. Drink or hold.
