Clos de Vougeot 2012 Mugneret-Gibourg

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (95)

The 2012 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru was less affected by coulure than the Echezeaux and so quantities are only slightly down. It is matured in 60% to 70% new oak from five different cooperages. The nose has a very floral, elegant opening with rose petal infused red cherry and strawberry fruit that gains vigor almost with every swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a candied opening: crisp redcurrant and raspberry fruit with sublime mineralite; great structure and precision towards the finish. The new oak is barely noticeable here but prolongs the finish. This is another outstanding 2012.
