Château de la Tour 2002 – Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru

This estate is the only one that vinifies in the Clos and owns several parcels to the north and south, top and bottom of the hillside. The colour is starting to turn garnet, but not yet faded. The nose is delicate and elegant with an aroma of dry clementine skin. On the palate, what a delight! Subtle and refined, melting on the tongue like tulle. Its saline attack and tannin grain are quite fine. The bitterness of the tannins underlines the structure. The fruitiness is already evolved. A good model of this appellation, finesse and power cohabit perfectly well in the bottle. Drink now or wait another 5 to 10 years. Very long on the finish.
