Tasting notes
The 2020 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Hommage à Jean Morin is brilliant, and one of the real high points of the vintage in the Côte de Nuits. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of wild berries, blood orange, rose petals, exotic spices, peonies, incense and loamy soil, it's full-bodied, layered and muscular, with a deep and multidimensional core of fruit that's framed by rich, powdery tannins and lively acids. Seamless and complete, it's worth a special effort to seek out.

The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Hommage à Jean Morin, a special selection of bunches within the old vines, the bunches the closest to the trunk. It contains around 60-70% whole bunch layered in the vat. It has a complex nose with mainly black fruit, that oyster shell influence once again, just a touch of black olive. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, fine backbone, quite linear but it expands on the finish. The whole bunch is very nicely enmeshed here and there is real salinity on the finish. Excellent. Around 900 bottles plus large formats produced.
