"It is unfortunate that the yields are so far down here this year, as this is a simply brilliant bottle of young Clos Vougeot! The complex bouquet is deep, pure, sappy and almost musky in its constellation of cherries, red and black raspberries, violets, raw cocoa, gorgeous soil tones, gamebird and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and very elegant in profile this year, with a sappy core, fine transparency, marvelous complexity and focus, fine-grained tannins and a very, very long, very elegant and promising finish. There is a real Vosne-Romanée personality to the Hudelot Clos Vougeot in 2016 that I find immensely promising."
