Clos de Vougeot has more than eighty owners and varies a lot in quality, so the climat on the label matters. This 2012 Grand Cru names Petit Maupertuis, one of the Clos's better addresses. It's a small plot on the Flagey side, just below Grands-Échezeaux and up against the old wall, which shelters the vines from wind and rain and radiates heat back at them in summer. As for the producer, Christophe Perrot-Minot runs the domaine from Morey-Saint-Denis, and his house style is close to obsessive: ancient vines, meticulous selection, very clean and precise winemaking, long maturation in the cellar and no expense spared. He's also strict about declassifying. Plenty of Premier Cru fruit goes into his village cuvées, and he bottles 100% Morey-Saint-Denis as plain Bourgogne Rouge. If you remember the old knock that these wines were overripe and over-oaked, that's no longer true: today they're rich but also pure and transparent. This is serious Grand Cru Pinot Noir for a dinner that deserves it.

More about Perrot-Minot

Ancient vines, meticulous selection, incredibly clean and precise winemaking, long maturation in the cellar, and declassification - all with no expense spared. These are the hallmarks of Domaine Perrot-Minot. Christophe Perrot-Minot puts lots of Premier Cru juice into his village level cuvees, labels 100% Morey Saint Denis as Bourgogne Rouge and in general makes intensely flavored and rich red burgundies with exquisite balance.

Years ago Perrot-Minot was criticized for making overripe wines with too much oak. This is no longer the case. Toda the wines are rich but also very pure and transparent. The tannins are ripe, fine, supple and well integrated.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast duck breast with a cherry or red-wine jus; coq au vin; roast squab or guinea fowl with wild mushrooms; beef bourguignon; a simple roast chicken with morels and cream.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Clos de Vougeot profile in Perrot-Minot's rich but pure style: dark cherry and black raspberry, with violet, spice and a savoury, earthy undertone. Typically full-bodied for Pinot Noir, with fine, firm tannins and fresh acidity framing the fruit, finishing long and polished. This is serious Grand Cru built to age.
