Lucien Le Moine, Clos Vougeot other_regions_italy lush and fruity with itsA notably ripe yet attractively fresh nose is made up of spice, earth, plum liqueur and a hint of smoked meat. The wonderfully sleek, concentrated and muscular flavors possess unusually good refinement in the context of what is typical for the appellation while delivering breathtakingly good persistence on the well balanced finish. 2015 was a great vintage for Clos de Vougeot and this example will only add to its renown.
