2013 Alain Hudelot-Noellat, Vougeot Premier Cru, Les Petits Vougeots 1x750ml

Vinous 90

Full, deep red. Musky redcurrant, iron and dusty spices on the nose. Suppler and sweeter than the Vosne villages but without quite that wine’s cut and precision. The musky red fruit and spice flavors show very good breadth and depth, with the finish revealing serious tongue-dusting tannins. Supported by solid underlying minerality but this wine is surprisingly accessible already. [Stephen Tanzer, 03/01/2016]
