Chantal Lescure 2022 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru

From vines in the upper part of the Clos (Lieu-dit "Montiotes Hautes") Terroir pebbly clay/limestone, 50% of the vines are 70+ years-old, 50% were replanted in 2011. (The exact position is a bit unclear on the Beteta maps, which put the Chantal Lescure vines running across "Dix Journaux" into "Montiotes Hautes" (?) just below Meo-Camuzet and above Guyon, De Montille and Prieure-Roch). Aromas are floral, meaty, elegant, deep black raspberry, cherry, violets; the palate is dense and deep with ripe black and red fruits, spice, mint, earth; fabulous length, supple, savory, mineral. Beautiful wine but be patient. DL
