Wine Critics Notes:
Vinous - Score: 91-93(43344)
(Ramonet is aging this wine and his Clos du Cailleret in 30% new oak, but uses 25% for the rest of his premier crus – and 50% for the grand crus): Bright, light yellow. Distinctly more yellow on the nose than the Morgeot, with its peach and toasty oak aromas lifted by a floral note. Fat, broad and rich but with lovely balancing acidity giving energy and force to the middle palate. Attractive balance here, and very long on the aftertaste.
