David Duband Description
Tasting notes:
Without a doubt one of the most famous Clos in the world.
In this vintage, the wine offers a classic nose of black fruits and flowers.
The finish is powerful and spicy.
Food Pairing : Peking Duck
Wine Making:
The grapes are picked by hand, sorted and vinified with 80% whole clusters. During the 17 days of fermentation, 5 to 7 treadings take place (punch downs by foot) as well some pumping over. After pressing, the wine is left to clarify for 2 weeks before being put into barrels (40% new oak barrels and 60% of 1, 2 and 3 year-old barrels). After 14 months in barrel, the wine is racked into tank where it rests for three months before bottling. The wine is neither fined nor filtered.
Wine Spectator: 94 Points
A leafy, charry edge upsets the cherry and blackberry flavors in this unsettled red. There's plenty of sappy fruit, so be patient. The best years are ahead. Long, saturated finish. Best from 2018 through 2033.
