2013 Benjamin Leroux, Clos Vougeot Petit Maupertui, 6x750ml

This is also quite plummy at present, indeed to the point that these aromas push the earth, spice and floral nuances to the background. There is imposing concentration and volume to the big-bodied, powerful and muscular flavors that possess outstanding complexity on the balanced, persistent and explosive finish, indeed this is borderline painful at present. This is a classically styled example with plenty of youthful austerity that makes it very clear this is a wine that will require plenty of patience.
