Cask sample. Mid crimson. Heady, strongly perfumed. A wine that's really quite difficult to spit for although it's awfully sweet, there's a heck of a lot going on. Layers and energy. Rich but not sickly. Really very powerful. I wonder how much alcohol there is here? Good balance between fruit and freshness with an undertow of rather bolder tannins than in most 2019 red burgundies.
This too is aromatically moderately reduced and unreadable today. By contrast there is fine freshness and verve to the dense, powerful, and muscular larger-scaled flavors that coat the palate with sappy dry extract before concluding in a dusty, austere, and firm finale. The 2019 Clos is excellent though I underscore that it's also quite serious, and as is usually the case, is going to require extending cellaring to arrive at its peak.
Starting to be some evolution in the colour. The nose is sumptuous with some peaches as well as red fruit. Ripe, bright, clearly quite powerful, but delicious. A little liquorice touch, evidently fully ripe but a style one can love, though you would not ever call it ethereal.
