Michel Gros Clos Vougeot Grand Maupertuis 2018
$245
A beguiling red that draws you in with its haunting perfume of black cherry, blackberry, flowers and spice. The toasty oak is more prominent on the palate, yet all of the components are well-proportioned, with a vein of mineral opening on the long aftertaste. An impressive display of finesse and power. Best from 2024 through 2040. 75 cases made, 15 cases imported.

Grape
Pinot Noir
This popular red grape originated in Burgundy but has spread across the New World. Like its white Burgundian counterpart Chardonnay, Pinot Noir is early-budding, early-ripening and thin-skinned. The sites where it tends to thrive can experience tough growing conditions, which lead to more rigorous fruit selection and lower yields. This is one of the reasons that high-quality Pinot Noir often carries a higher price tag than other wines.
