Chateau de la Tour Clos-Vougeot, Grand Cru, Vieilles Vignes (CHO) 2013

13.5% abv

Vol- 175cl

Noticeable but not invasive wood and menthol frame a slightly riper array of aromas that are quite similar to those of the regular cuvée. Here too there is outstanding density and power to the even more concentrated broad-shouldered and robust flavors that possess even better depth and persistence on the impeccably well-balanced, saline and palate coating finish. This is presently extremely primary and while it’s clear that this offers huge upside development potential it’s also clear that plenty of patience will be required.Burghound, 95 points, Burghound Jan 2016, drink 2031+

“(This is the last vintage of this wine to come entirely from a block of vines planted in 1910, and the last to be labeled Vieilles Vignes de Plus de 100 Ans, as François Labet is beginning a replanting program; beginning with 2015, this wine will come from several of Labet’s holdings around the Clos and will simply be called Vieilles Vignes): Bright ruby-red Lovely mineral and peony high notes lift dark fruits on the nose Sappy, dense and penetrating, offering terrific concentration and lift to its flavors of dark berries, licorice and minerals A superb vintage for this wine, less austere than some previous years “We’re coming from an era of cooler soils to warmer soils,” noted Labet “Global warming has been very good for Clos-Vougeot” This thick but energetic wines finishes with suave but serious building tannins and superb length Incidentally, there was no separate Hommage bottling in 2014.” 94 points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2016
