2004 Vougeraie Vougeot Clos de la Prieuré Rouge

By on March 31, 2007 #asides

The nose interesting with a forward impression and quite floral and elegant though edged in a cedar frame. Good concentration and very fresh. This is a nice and easy wine with a good finish.

The nose is deeper, a little reduced, sweet but not too sweet. Quite some density on the palate, low acidity and no sharp edges. An easy wine to drink.

After the 2003 this is aromatically more elegant with pure pinot fruit. Nice and fresh in the mouth with some density, good acidity and a nice minerality. This is also subtley long finishing. A very nice wine indeed.

Softer nose, just a hint animale and nicely round. This is a super 2001 with perfect texture and plenty of concentration. Long. Very impressive and complex too. I liked it a lot.

Candied red fruits on the nose and despite a hint of reduction this is nicely fresh for 2000. The palate is a little more angular and less elegantly textured than the 2001 that preceded it. Plenty of complexity and reasonable length, but his is much less a ‘complete’ wine than in 01.

Deep nose. A trace of reduction is insifficient to hide the width and depth of the fruit – more mature notes on display with this wine. This is quite powerful wine, held in-line with good acidity, faintly grainy tannin and a good length. Despite the secondary notes on the nose this is still very-much a young wine.

The nose is soft with red fruit – not to rich. Soft, supple and sweet on the palate with some grain to the tannin. This is quite serious and recommended.
