2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat

2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat

This is a supreme example of Clos de Vougeot, and possibly the best we tasted in 2020. Charles has two excellent parcels, of which one is just next to the château in the sweet spot of the Clos. It shows density without heaviness, intensity without aggression.

Tasting notes

The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a very well-defined bouquet, quite mineral-driven with crushed rock and pressed iris flower combined with dark cherry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fine acidity, very focused with quite a strict and saline finish. There is a sense of class here and it has the substance to age well in bottle.
