Mongeard Mugneret, Vougeot Cras Rouge Size:6x750ml Freshly cut flowers

Freshly cut flowers

although there is no mistaking the Napa Cabernet fruit profile in all but the texture of the tannins

since 2003

serious and complex finale that is also clearly built-to-age

and should hit full maturity in about 3-4 years and last at least 15-20

Mongeard Mugneret, Vougeot Cras Rouge Size:6x750ml Freshly cut flowersA very ripe yet still acceptably fresh nose speaks of menthol, spice and liqueur like black raspberry aromas. There is very good volume to the reasonably well detailed medium bodied flavors that culminate in a mocha infused finish that noticeable wood and warmth can be found. This is a wine to watch as it ages because while it has the stuffing to reward 6 to 10 years of cellaring, I do wonder if it might become heavy as it does so.
