Product Notes

Albert Bichot's Domaine du Clos Frantin Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a captivating French wine of top echelon, originating from the renowned Burgundy region. Its prominent, full-bodied character elicits velvety profiles of dark fruit, with mingling undertones of earthy truffle and spicy oak. The wine's profound, layered complexity is gracefully balanced by a persistent intensifying finish. Its expressive opulence and elegant maturity, resulting from meticulous aging, contributes to its acclaimed status. This wine embodies the quintessential Gevrey-Chambertin style, making it a must-try for ardent wine enthusiasts. Extraordinarily balanced, it's a grand illustration of exquisite French viticulture.

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.
