Domaine François Legros Les Crâs Vougeot 1er Cru 2022

Tasting Notes

The 2022 Vougeot Les Cras 1er Cru comes from a parcel next to Château de la Tour, planted next to Chardonnay from Domaine de la Vougeraie. It has a potent marine/estuarine-scented bouquet with mainly red berry fruit and hints of morels and crushed stone. The medium-bodied palate offers sappy red fruit, very smooth in style, although, like in previous years, I discern more complexity on Legros's Chambolle and Morey-Saint-Denis cuvées. Fine. Drinking window: 2025-2038. Score - 90. (Neal Martin, vinous.com, Jan. 11, 2024)
