Clos Vougeot Grand Cru 2017

The 2017 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru was showing some reduction on the nose when tasted from barrel, making it difficult to read. The masculine palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin and quite firm in the mouth. I would be seeking more finesse and nuance, especially toward the sinewy finish, once this is in bottle.
