ready-improve2016 Clos Blanc de Vougeot, 1er Cru, Domaine de la Vougeraie

It is easy to underestimate this wine. In its youth it can be explosive with luscious, expansive aromatics, just as now; but the palate tells a different story, which is tight, locked and uncommunicative  Ebut that just sets things up for the future. This is a very special terroir, tucked under the wall of the Clos itself, and its wines are made to age. Drink 2020-2030.
