2009 Vougeraie Vougeot Clos Blanc de Vougeot

The aromas are not so deep but show an engaging width. Concentrated with good underlying acidity, this is rich – but not in any negative sense. Lovely length – super.

There is both depth and concentration to the nose. In the mouth there is a width of ripe fruit that is suffused by mineral flavours and real dimensions of complexity as it heads into, and onto the finish. Hmm – I’m in love for the first time today!

There’s a touch of honey on the nose, faint melon too. The palate is a little shy and and understated – but it’s finely constructed – long and complex with good minerality. This is a young but super wine, really fine.

The nose is reminiscent of the 2001 with its faint touch of honey. The palate, likewise, has really good acidity and fine depth. Only the texture is a little disappointing vs the super 2001, but for all that, this is a very nice wine.

The only wine from this vertical that betrays a little oak on the nose, no honey notes to spot this time. Fresh, interesting but not quite the depth and length of the 2000-02 trio. Pleasant enough wine.

2004 Vougeraie Vougeot Clos Blanc de Vougeot

The nose is a little tight – just a trace of anise. Good fat similar balancing acidity to the Beaune blanc – but finer. Concentrated but much more linear than the Beaune – presents itself very differently. Wait 2 years before thinking about drinking…

Rich and ripe with apparently good acidity – but just a little harshness – this was quite a late bottling despite a quick malo. For my palate, disappointing, even for an 03.
