The Domaine de Montille Clos Vougeot 2008 is showing fine intensity and concentration for the vintage. It’s starting to reveal some maturing notes – sous-bois and some earthy minerality accompanying red and dark fruit. Very finely balanced with refined notes of youthful yet maturing fruit. Not yet fully open energy-wise; still, drinking well at the moment.
