Capitain Gagnerot Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Burgundy France, 2015, 750

Deep Garnet,

Black Cherry, rose petals, minerals, wet earth, game, cured meat, smoke, with just a touch of vanilla on the nose.

Dense, youthful, and persistent on the palate which closely follows the nose with around 15 layers unfolding in the mid given a bit of patience. The acid and tannin are enough to blind the fruit, you will miss it if you are not paying enough attention. Long (30 second plus) linear finish.
