LUCIEN LE MOINE Clos de Vougeot 2023. Score : 97
Lush and smoky, this powerful red is smooth and exhibits toasty oak spice wrapped around a core of juicy black cherry and blackberry flavors. Iron, tobacco and vanilla accents add depth as vibrant acidity ushers in the superlong aftertaste. The presence of firm tannins suggests aging this a few years. Best from 2030 through 2050. 20 cases imported. –BS
