Product Notes

Albert Bichot - Domaine du Clos Frantin Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a majestic French wine crafted in the heart of the prestigious Clos de Vougeot appellation in Burgundy. This luxurious vintage showcases a beautiful polish with delicate undertones of red fruits, earthy truffle, and whispering spices. The rich, velvety texture unfolds in an engaging play of tannins and perfectly balanced acidity, culminating in a surprisingly long provocative finish. It's an exquisite testimony to the captivating complexity and refined elegance typical of Grand Cru wines, encapsulating the very soul of the Burgundy Terroir. Best enjoyed after an extended decanting period.

Tasting Notes

When young, our Clos-de-Vougeot develops a very complete and varied aromatic palette of wild red and black berries. With aging, it evolves towards notes of light tobacco and tea. The palate is robust but not rustic, with a mentholated note that may be appreciated vintage after vintage.
