94-96 Matured with 50% whole bunches and 50% new oak, the 2019 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is blessed with an exquisite bouquet of mineral-rich raspberry and cranberry fruit, hints of orange blossom and Asian spice. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle but insistent grip on the entry. A little chalky in texture, this is very well defined with plenty of energy palpable on the pesistent finish. This is a superb Clos Vougeot, the most intellectual of Clerget's 2019s. ... More details

93-95 The 2019 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is powerful and muscular, unwinding in the glass with notes of plums, cassis and berries, complemented by hints of violets, orange rind, rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, it's rich and elegantly tannic, with fine depth at the core and a long, gently chalky fisnih.

Rated 93 by Burghound
This is also sufficiently reduced to need a thorough aeration if you're tempted to go in for an early taste. More interesting are the slightly more concentrated larger-scaled flavors that exude evident power on the focused, serious and compact finish where the only reproach is a mild hint of warmth. This youthfully austere effort is very clearly built-to-age and is a wine that is going to need at least a decade of it first.
Winery
A rather harsh wine at first, awakened by the whole harvest. It needs time to calm down and reveal itself.

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Region: Burgundy

The beautiful region of Burgundy in France is famously home to some of the most exquisite red wines to be found anywhere on earth, and is most commonly associated with the silky, elegant and flavorful Pinot Noir varietal wines which are commonly produced there. However, the superb and mineral rich soils fed by the Rhone river, and the long hot summers and mild autumns of the region produce a wide variety of fine grapes, and as such, Burgundy produces plenty of different wines which are equally as good as the produce the region is famed for. The region of Burgundy itself has a wine-making history which stretches back at least two thousand years, and as such, it comes as no surprise that the wineries which fill the dozens of controlled appellations of the region rely heavily on traditional methods and techniques when it comes to producing their famous wines.

Country: France

Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
