Clos Rougeard “Le Bourg” 2018

Broad and resonant, this opens with dark plum skin, black cherry, and cassis bud, layered with cigar box, loamy earth, and a warm, iron-tinged depth that immediately signals scale. The palate is expansive and slow-moving, built around dense, savory fruit and polished but authoritative tannins, with acidity integrated rather than leading. Notes of leather, black tea, and damp soil unfurl gradually, carrying into a long, enveloping finish that feels architectural rather than linear. Le Bourg shows Clos Rougeard at its most powerful and baritone—depth, breadth, and gravitas over immediacy.
