CLOS VOUGEOT Grand Cru Henri Boillot 2016
The 2016 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a fragrant bouquet with red cherries and hints of kirsch, gently unfolding with time and not as immediate as its peers. The palate is well balanced with sappy red fruit, a slightly rustic frame of tannin with some dryness towards the spice-tinged finish. It improves considerably in the glass, gaining more personality and harmony, though never really captures the heart. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.
MOREY SAINT DENIS 1er Cru Les Chenevery Domaine Lignier-Michelot 2018
(80% whole cluster). Once again there is a plethora of floral elements adding a touch of elegance to the baked dark berry fruit and earth-scented nose, all of which is trimmed in soft wood nuances. The full-bodied, powerful and mouthcoating flavors deliver first-rate persistence on the impressively long finish that is also shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins. Good stuff though patience is once again suggested.
