**Note: from a parcel situated by the Château at the top of the slope and below the section known as Le Musigni; on the old maps, it was designated as Montiotes Hautes**
An intensely earthy yet quite pretty nose features a beautifully complex and unusually fresh red pinot and dark berry fruit mix that is set off by a discreet application of wood. The rich, powerful and overtly muscular big-bodied flavors possess an abundance of tannin-buffering extract that confers a seductive texture to the mid-palate yet the finish displays the hallmark austerity of a young Clos de Vougeot. Sensational quality here and this should prove to be one of the great vintages for this storied wine.
