【An hauntingly elegant and exceptionally rare Grand Cru Burgundy that exemplifies the finesse and power typical of the region.】 The 2020 Philippe Pacalet Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is noted for its remarkable balance between freshness and ripeness, reflecting Pacalet's naturalist winemaking philosophy with minimal intervention. This excellent vintage offers impressive power and concentration while maintaining finesse. It displays a deep ruby red color with garnet highlights. The nose is profound and complex, offering layers of ripe red fruits, black cherry, spicy notes, black truffle accents, forest floor, subtle spices, and an underlying mineral tension. On the palate, it is structured, powerful, and elegant, with silky tannins and a fresh, remarkably persistent finish, showcasing waves of fruit, spice, and mineral notes. Some notes also mention an exuberant, silky character with lovely cherry fruit and extremely perfumed notes of watermelon, flowers, and fresh earth.
