"The 2015 Clos Vougeot from Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat is also outstanding and is quite black fruity this year. The nose offers up a nascently complex mix of black plums, black cherries, gamebird, dark chocolate, a superb base of soil, woodsmoke and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very sappy at the core, with lovely purity and focus, ripe, suave tannins and excellent length and grip on the perfectly balanced finish. This wine is very plush on the attack, but nicely soil-driven and structured on the backend. It will be stunning at its apogee."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
2015 in Burgundy was warm and dry, yielding concentrated, powerful and opulent reds with ripe tannins from low yields; the whites are richer and generous, though some show comparatively lower acidity.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
