Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru has a more high-toned bouquet with touches of cassis infusing the brambly red fruit, though it does not possess the complexity of the best Clos Vougeot this vintage. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy with good depth, juicy ripe tannins encasing the cranberry and strawberry fruit, a touch of spice carrying the finish over the line. It is just a little ... predictable, but well made. Tasted September 2016.- Neal Martin (11/2016)
Saturated with violet, black cherry, raspberry and spice flavors, this red combines a silky texture and a firm structure. Reticent on the finish now, but a year or two in the cellar will help. Best from 2019 through 2035. 10 cases imported. — BS (10/2016)
