2012 Vougeraie Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot RP--89

Robert Parker: 89 Points
The 2012 Vougeot 1er Cru Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot comes from 2 parcels that together total around 2-hectars of vine. Pierre told me that it usually spends a longer duration on barrel, around 15 months plus another four in tank. It has a light bouquet with apricot and white peach surfacing with aeration accompanied by a touch of pralines. The palate is crisp and fresh with fine acidity, leading to a composed, leesy finish that lingers nicely in the mouth. Delicious. (Dec 2013)
