Clos-Vougeot Grand Cru AOC Clos de Vougeot, Bourgogne, France We often evocate in Burgundy: “the round cuvée” because it takes up all the types of soils that we can find on the appellation. THE VINTAGE 1833 bottles and 60 magnums have been produced for the vintage 2013. LOCATION 0.75 ha planted in 1948. The plot of the estate is located in the southern part of the appellation, at the corner of the wall separating the Echézeaux and Clos-Vougeot. TERROIR Its originality lies in the length of its rows - 200 meters - on three different soils: - first a stony soil with an important limestone-clay ratio, - then a soil with small stones and a high proportion of clay, - finally a finer soil with clays and silts. VINIFICATION The grapes are harvested by hand and destemmed. 3 weeks of fermentation with a very moderate intervention. The aging is 50% in new barrels for 22 month. VARIETALS Pinot Noir 100% TASTING NOTES The nose is classy a Grand Cru of course but not always the case with Clos Vougeot from holdings in the middle of the Clos on the Vougeot side very close to the wall On the palate Bing cherry has some tannins but lots of class with some rustic mineral elements very square and well-structured super fresh minty fruit with lots of racy Stoney mineral fruit with a long finish. 1/1 Thibault Liger-Belair - 40 rue du 18 décembre, 21700 Nuits Saint Georges Tel. 03 80 61 51 16 - [email protected] L’ABUS D’ALCOOL EST DANGEREUX POUR LA SANTÉ, SACHEZ APPRÉCIER ET CONSOMMER AVEC MODÉRATION.

With more than 1,500 years of cultivation, it is hard to argue against the Musique et Vin festival by holding an auction for special bottles donated by winemakers this belief. However, to The Wine Forum, Burgundy is more than just pure, scholarly wine. To us, whom we will be visiting and splitting the proceeds equally between these two worthy causes. Burgundy represents all that we as a group stand for—that is, that fine wine is not a right, but a And what a tour we have lined up! We commence with a Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru tasting privilege. Speaking with the region’s very top winemakers, they resolutely believe they are merely the current custodians of cherished plots, and that their role is to make the best wines possible at the Château du Clos de Vougeot on the final night of the 2014 Musique et Vin Festival. This and pass on the vineyard in the best condition possible to the next generation. Working the soil fabled region hosts 9 Grand Cru vineyards, the most of any in Burgundy.

France Few Regions Can Claim the Fame and Admiration That Burgundy BURGUNDY Has Enjoyed Since the Second Century
France Few regions can claim the fame and admiration that Burgundy BURGUNDY has enjoyed since the second century. Comprised of the Chablis, Côte d’Or, Côte Chalonnaise, Mâconnais and Beaujolais regions, Burgundy occupies a long and narrow stretch of vineyards in eastern France. The critical effect of terroir in Burgundy is expressed in its complex classification system. • Vineyards are divided into separate appellations along terroir France boundaries; the full range of classification levels from broadest to the most distinguished follows: District (e.g. Beaujolais or Chablis), Village (e.g. Pommard), Premier Cru (e.g. Pommard les Rugiens) and Grands Cru (e.g. Clos Vougeot). • As a result of Burgundy’s rules of inheritance, vineyard ownership is quite fragmented, with multiple owners for most crus. The Clos de Vougeot vineyard, for example, is split between 80 different owners. • Though soils vary, clay and limestone predominate in the Côte d’Or and granite is common in Beaujolais.

Clos De Vougeot 2015 Grand Cru- 100% Pinot Noir Clos Vougeot Is a Large Vineyard (50 Hectares - 125 Acres) Located Bewteen Vosne-Romanée and Chambolle-Musigny
Clos de Vougeot 2015 Grand Cru- 100% Pinot Noir Clos Vougeot is a large vineyard (50 hectares - 125 acres) located bewteen Vosne-Romanée and Chambolle-Musigny. Joseph Drouhin owns two parcels in this mythical vineyard, both on a mild incline with a due east exposure. History & Tradition: • The most glorious and famous of all Burgundy vineyards. • The Clos (French for “enclosure”) was first planted and surrounded by a wall at the end of the 12th Century by the monks of Citeaux. They built a castle which is now the seat of the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin. • Soil: very diverse and a true mosaic, a mix of clay and limestone in various pro- portions. Drouhin estate: 0,90 ha. (2.25 acres). Average of the vines: 31 years. Viticulture: • Biological cultivation since 1990; biodynamic cultivation a few years later. • Soil maintenance: compost of manure and white wood, sometimes guano (sea- bird manure used as fertilizer). Soil is ploughed either by tractor or by horse to manage spreading of weeds. • Treatment: only authorized products for biological cultivation are used: infusions and macerations of plant materials, sulfur and copper, powdered rock. Natural predators are not eliminated. • Plantation density: from 10,000 to 12,500 stocks/ha in order to extract all possible nuances from the ter- roir and limit the production of each vine stock. Pruning: Guyot. • Yield: we aim to keep our yields low, more in line with the previous regulation: around 20% less than al- lowed by the current law. Vinification: • Harvesting: by hand, in small open crates in order to preserve the integrity of the fruit.

2016 Vintage
2016 VINTAGE Imported and Distributed by VINTUS 42 Memorial Plaza, Suite 210, Pleasantville, NY 10570 T: (914) 769-3000 E: [email protected] 1 Stephen Tanzer on the Lucien Le Moine 2016s Lucien Le Moine takes #1 and #2 in his reviews of 2016 vintage whites (LLM reds not rated yet) “Every vintage is the year of the century but this time it’s true,” said Mounir Saouma only half in jest about vintage 2016. Like a few of his colleagues, he compared ’16 and ’15 to ’10 and ’09, noting that ’15 and ’09 gave us our most mature grapes ever but that “in ’16 and ’10 we were surprised at the successful results.” He went on: “People learned from their mistakes in 2009 and did better in 2015; in this very warm vintage, many very fresh, fine wines were made. The ‘16s were born by Caesarean: the baby was not sitting well, mom was hysterical and the doctors were in panic. So we cut out the baby and he’s a genius.” The key in 2016, said Saouma, is how to bring out the tannins and keep enough energy without allowing the wines to dry out by the time they go into bottle. “There’s a fresh, mineral as- pect to the vintage, but I’m a bit concerned that if we make wines with tannins that are too supple, we’ll lose length, but if we go in the direction of tannins, we risk having dry wines.” Still, he maintained that alcohol levels are “classical” (i.e., below 13.5%) and that acidity levels and pHs are good.

Clos De Vougeot- Winebow
Clos de Vougeot 2014 W I N E D E S C R I P T I O N Domaine Jean Grivot is among the great names in Burgundian wine. Étienne Grivot and his wife Marielle took over from Étienne’s father Jean Grivot in 1987. The vineyards are densely planted and farmed organically “sans certification” while the aim in the cellar is for balance and clear expression of terroir. Jean Grivot’s 38.3 acres spread across 22 appellations with vineyards in the communes of Vosne-Romanée, Vougeot, Chambolle-Musigny, and Nuits-Saint-Georges. Besides the three grand crus, there are 8 premier crus including the much lauded Les Beaux Monts and Suchots in Vosne-Romanée. The grapes are completely de-stemmed and fermentation is spontaneous. A B O U T T H E V I N E Y A R D Clos de Vougeot grand cru was acquired by Étienne’s grandfather, Gaston Grivot, in 1919. The total holding is 4.6 acres from the middle of the vineyard to the lower wall and the average vine age is 40 years old. A good Clos de Vougeot should be a complete wine without any one feature standing out. It is a perfect balance of power, aroma, and flavor. W I N E P R O D U C T I O N The grapes are destemmed and maceration à froid usually lasts just a day or two. The alcoholic fermentation is spontaneous and malolactic fermentation occurs in barrel. Depending on the vintage, the proportion of new oak is around 40-70% percent for the grands crus.
