Maison de Grand Esprit Vougeot Premier Cru 2016 - In Bond

  • France
  • Pinot Noir
  • ABV 13
  • Zalto Denk'Art Burgundy Glass

Stuart McCloskey “The bouquet is wonderfully complex and would provide hours of entertainment. Unfurling to an irresistible mélange of sous-bois, raspberry, a smidgeon of rhubarb, violet, rose petal, sweet spice and prickles of blood orange. There’s an obvious wild hedgerow element to the fruit along with damp undergrowth and sea salt. Evolved and evolving – a wine that’s now turning to its second stage in life, and all the better for it. The palate is beautifully poised – the flavours build effortlessly. Those wishing for a comparison - this is less fruit-forward than the 2018. Mercurial with its deliverance and more Burgundian than New World. The tannins are so graceful and literally melt into the smorgasbord of wild, briary hedgerow fruit – a little sous-bois and orange peel too. This wine really appeals to me – it's transitioning, with tertiary notes coming forward. Regal and notably pure. Everything seems in the right place. Decanted for 30-minutes and served using Zalto Burgundy glassware.” Drink now to 2030.
