Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 - Moillard-Grivot

Moillard-Grivot's Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 is an exquisite Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's most renowned Grand Cru sites. This legendary wine region, founded in the 12th century by the monks of the Abbaye de Cîteaux, offers a distinctive terroir with the Clos de Vougeot. The 50.59 hectares of Clos de Vougeot have never been divided and retain their authentic identity within the historic walls that have surrounded the vineyard for over 500 years. The Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 is the epitome of elegance and class, reflecting the exceptional potential of the Côte de Nuits.

Vinification and Aging:
The grapes for this premium wine are carefully hand-harvested. After harvesting, traditional vinification takes place in thermoregulated stainless steel tanks. A cold maceration before fermentation allows for optimal aroma extraction. Fermentation is long and supported by regular pigeage (punching down the cap) to extract the full flavor and tannins. Subsequently, the Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 matures for 20 months in oak barrels, 60% of which are new barrels and 40% are used barrels that have been used one to two times. The oak primarily comes from the Vosges region, lending additional complexity to the wine.

Wine Description and Aromas:
The Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 presents a deep red color and develops an intense bouquet of blackcurrants, raspberries, and spices. Over time, complex aromas of wax, leather, and coffee evolve, lending the wine remarkable depth. On the palate, the wine is powerful, yet elegant and harmonious, with fine-grained tannins that underscore the long and seductive finish. This exceptional Grand Cru is undoubtedly among Burgundy's finest wines.

Recommended Serving Temperature:
For an optimal taste experience, the Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru 2014 should be served at 14–16°C.

Recommended Food Pairings:
