Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2020

Delectable Wine
9.6

The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is well-defined on the nose with joyful brambly red fruit laced with crushed stone, certainly one of the more mineral-driven wines from the famed closed wall. There is an almost crystalline quality here. The palate is medium-bodied with a sense of strictness, fresh and quite sapid, not powerful yet taut, and has a finish that makes you want another sip. This is a 2020 that surpassed expectations. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, October 2024)

Les Clos Cuvée Vielles Vignes Fleurie Gamay 2022

Good fruit, smooth tannins….this wine is drinking well and has some life left — 24 days ago

Clos Saint Jean

Deus Ex Machina Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

The color still looks good on this one but I’d like a bit more punch. It’s a bit on the soft side. Not over the edge but these need to be drunk. — 2 months ago

Interesting that they label this a “dessert wine”. It’s good for everything imho

Imported by Premier Cru. Pretty sure those guys went broke and scammed people. Hope someone else is importing these now….

Saint-Joseph Syrah 2018

Beautiful wine from a few weeks ago at a great dinner in Stockholm. Dark and red fruits with subtle spices, tannins that stayed in the background and a hint of vanilla. Very enjoyable — 16 days ago

Saint-Joseph Syrah 2019

2019 vintage. As rustic as ever. Blood. Earth. Plum. Stems. Heavy body. A step or two above a solid workhorse but not flighty. Tremendous punch. Could be wrong but think this producer only does Saint Joseph and Crozes-Hermitage and both are great QPR. 10.30.24. — a month ago

So overlooked and it’s maybe the most classic old school St Jo since Trollat. And way better.

@Lyle Fass Love this producer. Obscenely underpriced and that is not something I can say often enough.
