Tasting notes

The 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru comes from a 0.33-hectare parcel next to Méo-Camuzet, matured in 75% new oak (the first vines that Georges Mugneret bought…when he was a medical student!) The beautiful bouquet shades the Ruchottes-Chambertin with life-affirming mineralité and tension, laser-like focus and palpable energy. The palate is medium-bodied with sapid red berry fruit, tension from start to finish, finishing with real substance. Very long on the aftertaste - this is the Domaine's best 2022 and one of the best Clos Vougeot this vintage.

(96—98)/100

Planted in 1954 and 1964, yielding 45 hl/ha at 13.4% alcohol. A solid bright ruby in colour. The bouquet offers the typical density of Clos Vougeot in a fine vintage, with some darker berries, and a very light chocolate note. Fills the palate from the very start then shows an extra lift on the second half, pretty red fruit, yet with a solid dense approach. Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted: November 2023.
