Visit to Chateau de la Tour – tasting the 2018s

By Steen Öhman July 26, 2020 - Leave a Comment

The 2018 vintage is a hot, generous year for Clos Vougeot, following in the footsteps of 2015 although perhaps not quite rivalling the quality of the best '15s. Francois Labet made three intense and expressive Clos Vougeot in 2018, so let's taste these wonders. And to clarify: I use Clos de …

Chateau de la Tour Clos de Vougeot Vieilles Vignes 2012

By Steen Öhman July 22, 2016 -

The Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2012 is still very young with the oak slightly forward in the bouquet. The fruit is rich and ample in the nose - dense yet some transparency under the quite forward oak. On the palate silky fruit - quite firmly structured by the tannins. It's a big, vinous and muscular wine …
