- This wine is the epitome of great Burgundy: supple, sumptuous with great depth and complexity and a wonderful fragrance.
As it has been all its life, the '05 Clos de Vougeot remains quite reserved though aggressive swirling eventually coaxes notably ripe dark berry liqueur-like aromas that are cut with notes of warm earth, leather and underbrush. There is excellent concentration to the broad-shouldered, powerful and intense flavors that possess an impressive level of sappy dry extract, all wrapped in a driving, youthfully austere and ever-so-mildly rustic finish. This is a classically styled example of the appellation that is clearly still very much evolving and to my taste one that will require at least another decade of bottle age first. In sum, this is impressive but still quite backward.
