1995 Denis Mortet 'Clos de Vougeot' Grand Cru
95 points - Bruce Sanders, Wine Spectator
A stunning Clos Vougeot, packed with ripe blackberry flavor matched by a beautifully balanced structure and a sense of harmony. Just needs until 2003 to hit its stride. Brilliantly done.
91 points - Int'l Wine Cellar
Deep ruby-red. Black raspberry, cassis, black cherry, smoke, licorice and herbs on the nose. Lovely sweetness and vinosity in the mouth; complicating, slightly high-toned notes of woodsmoke and roasted coffee. Tannins are a bit tough today, but this is quite long. (ST)
