An exuberant Grand Cru from one of Burgundy’s most thoughtful vignerons, this 2017 Clos de Vougeot Petit Maupertuis unfolds with bright purple hues and a headily aromatic scent that hints at balsamic lift over ripe red and dark fruits. The palate delivers elegant, fine-grained tannins and mineral undercurrent while vibrant brambly and dried cranberry tones dance across a poised yet persistent finish.
