Tasting Notes

WA89–91
The 2013 Vougeot 1er Cru les Cras appears to have plenty of straightforward ripe orange and tangerine notes interlacing the vivacious red berry fruit. There is a slight “sweet shop” note here, but it is not confected. The palate is medium-bodied with quite conspicuous wood at the moment. Good depth here, although it just needs a little more precision and delineation on the finish. Give it 2 or 3 years in bottle.
