Clos de Vougeot Domaine du Clos Frantin 2015 (750ML)

94 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2015 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a perfumed, peppermint-tinged bouquet, turning more to cough drop scents with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied, offering supple tannin, good balance, smooth texture, well-judged acidity and a silky, sensual, almost flirtatious finish. It may have put on a little too much "makeup" in the winery, but there is undoubtedly a pretty wine underneath. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (Drink between 2020-2045)" 11/18

92 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "A distinctly earthy nose is composed of very fresh red and dark currant laced with humus and underbrush nuances that are trimmed in notes of oak and menthol. The concentrated, serious and powerful broad-shouldered flavors possess a round and relatively supple mid-palate that contrasts substantially with the firm and youthfully austere if slightly warm finale. This is going to require moderately extended cellaring to resolve the prominent tannic spine. (Drink starting 2027)" Issue #69, 01/18
