Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Perrot-Minot's 2008 Clos Vougeot Vieilles Vignes - racked to tank two weeks before I tasted it - smells of purple plum, dark cherry, and charred red meat. Graphite, crushed st...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Red-ruby. Crushed black cherry and violet on the withdrawn, slightly medicinal nose; like the Clos de Beze, this shows the cool side of the vintage. Less sweet and pliant than...
