Domaine Genot-Boulanger Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 2022
The 2022 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru was the only cuvée still in barrel to improve the tannins. It has a very composed bouquet with cranberry, raspberry and light pressed flower scents, just a faint sous-bois scent in the wings. The palate is medium-bodied with finely chiseled tannins. Not a powerful or grippy Grand Cru by any means, but it is surfeit with transparency and Pinoté, lingering long on the aftertaste. Excellent.
95 Pts Vinous
Bright mid crimson to ruby. First up is a fresh and simple fruit. Afterwards, it shows on the palate with a more serene weight, fresh red berries and a little orange zest, ripe tannins behind, and a fresh acidity. The whole is there but this is not demonstrative. This has been racked and sent back to barrel.
