2002 Engel, Rene Clos Vougeot

95 pts - Wine Advocate

As was noted in the introduction, 2002 will long be remembered as a great vintage for Clos Vougeot and Engel’s is no exception. Produced from 50-year-old vines and aged in 80% new oak, this medium to dark ruby-colored wine sports an earthy black cherry, intensely spicy nose. Concentrated, deep, and intense, it is crammed with loads of black cherries, spices, and blackberries whose flavors linger in its superbly soft and lengthy finish. Projected maturity: 2007-2015. RP
