Clos du Prieuré Monopole Vougeot Chardonnay

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!

Delicate, floral notes on the nose, dried cherry, nicely balanced

A monopole from the red heartland of Vougeot from the excellent ‘14 vintage (for white), my expectation was high.

Layers of lemon curd, pear skin, and crushed stone clouded by bruised apple and hazelnut on the nose. The palate is linear, saline, and mineral and has superb tension - maybe a bit too much.

Slightly over the hill, but compelling nevertheless.

Stone and minerals. Somewhat closed.

Non avevano altro da metterci…!

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

What a performance tonight

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.
