Camille Giroud, Clos Vougeot Vintage:2022 Reduction masks the underlying fruit

Reduction masks the underlying fruit though there is a really lovely inner mouth perfume to the punchy and gorgeously textured middle weight flavors that brim with minerality on the sappy and wonderfully complex finale that flashes first-rate length

fine-grained frame and bags of freshness

This is typical Millandes in that it’s going to need extended cellaring to shed its firm tannic spine

Camille Giroud, Clos Vougeot Vintage:2022 Reduction masks the underlying fruit(from Petit Maupertui). There is enough reduction to dominate the fruit though it clearly seems ripe. Otherwise there is first rate volume, punch and mid palate density to the muscular flavors that are also quite firmly structured but even so there is less youthful austerity than is typical for Clos de Vougeot. Still, this is definitely going to require at least moderate patience and like the Chambertin, this is excellent as well. (92 95) 2030+
