Domaine de la Vougeraie
Clos du Prieuré Monopole Vougeot Chardonnay
Vougeot, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Muted nose which didn't give up too much. Hazelnuts, grapefruit and lemons are evident.
It has a heavy mouthful and the wood treatment is evident, giving the wine roundness. Finish is compressed. Good, but not great.

I don't have too much familiarity with this producer but thought this bottle was delicious. Thank you, Winn!

Impressive white from Clos Vougeot - balanced acidity, stone fruit and minerality. Came off as a 1er cru burgundy Chardonnay.

Interesting combination of lemon/lime with green apple on the palate and a balance of flowers plus cooking spices on the nose. Paired well with my Caesar Salad

Notjing remarkable about nose. No viscosity; surprisingly thin. Obvious oak but not overwhelming. And good acidity. Better with food than a stand alone wine.

An odd oaky nose initially that became one of the ocean and oysters, with a lovely crisp minerality on the palate, with a hint of lemon and honey, that pairs very well with Cotswold, jalapeño havarti and aged Gouda.
