Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2021 3000ml

The 2021 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru from Philippe Pacalet reflects both the cooler nature of the vintage and Pacalet's minimalist winemaking approach in this historic grand cru vineyard.

The nose is elegant and precise, offering red fruits and subtle dark berries, intertwined with forest floor notes and delicate spices. The aromatic profile shows remarkable clarity and focus, typical of the cooler 2021 vintage, while maintaining the complexity expected of this prestigious terroir.

On the palate, the wine displays refined power and detailed precision rather than overt concentration. The structure is sophisticated and well-defined - characteristic of both Clos Vougeot and the 2021 vintage - with fine-grained tannins providing elegant support. The cooler vintage conditions have produced a wine of particular transparency and mineral expression. The finish is long and detailed, with pure fruit notes and mineral elements that continue to unfold.

This wine demonstrates both the aristocratic nature of Clos Vougeot and Pacalet's ability to let terroir speak clearly through minimal intervention, while capturing the more classical, precise character of the 2021 vintage.
