How does this wine taste?
How full and heavy the wine feels in your mouth, like the difference between skimmed milk and cream. More alcohol, sugar and oak ageing make a wine fuller.
The drying, grippy feel on your gums and tongue, as with strong tea. It comes from the skins and seeds of black grapes and from oak, and softens with age.
How much sugar you taste, from dry to sweet. Fruity is not the same as sweet: a dry wine can taste of ripe fruit.
How fresh and juicy the wine is: acidity makes your mouth water. High acidity tastes lively and refreshing, low acidity soft and round.

Log inThe 2014s from Domaine d'Eugenie follow a similar pattern to the 2013s. Clearly every effort is being made to make great wines from these favourable vineyards.
Clos de Vougeot is one of the oldest Clos in Burgundy and d'Eugénie has 1.37 hectares here. The vines of d'Eugénie are located on the highest part next to the chateau. The vines here are around 60 years old. The soil holds a lot of clay and limestone and the deeper soil more clay silt. It is a full, multi-dimensional wine with good concentration, juicy acidity and rich but satiny tannins that end with a long and well-defined finish. This is a promising wine from Domaine d'Eugénie that always scores high.

Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, the 2014 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from Domaine d'Eugenie certainly has one of the more sophisticated and nuanced aromatics among its peers: pure red fruit, mineral, neatly integrated oak, just a hint of rose petal emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, seductive core of red fruit. It is silky in texture and the acidity well judged with a caressing finish, although it begins to pall after a while and just feels as if it needs another trick up its sleeve. It starts really promising, up there with Etienne Grivot's Clos de Vougeot, but then does not follow through. That said, it is still a very commendable wine. Tasted September 2017.

Good dark red Cool, youthfully inexpressive nose dominated by black cherry and smoky minerality; the strictest of these 2014s today (Mallard described it as Cistercian) Densely packed and very rich but classically dry, with savory minerality currently holding the upper hand over the wine's fruit This extremely backward wine is also showing its new oak element (85%) in the early going, with the firmly tannic finish displaying a note of caramel along with a strong impression of saline dry extract Today it's the Grands-Echézeaux that sings
- By Stephen Tanzer on December 2016
The high quality and essential harmoniousness of Domaine d’Eugénie is particularly remarkable considering how much sorting of the fruit was necessary in the vineyards In addition to their normal green harvest at the end of July, the estate did a major pass through the vines in early September to eliminate grapes affected by rot, hail and the Drosophila suzukii, as well as berries that had been burned by the sun during a heat spike in mid-July Winemaker Michel Mallard told me that the finished 2014s remind him of his 2011s “They’re expressive, fresh and mouthwatering wines,” he said The bottling took place between December of 2015 and May of 2016

Deze Clos Vougeot 2014 van Domaine d'Eugénie toont een volle, multidimensionale smaak met geconcentreerd rood en zwart fruit, sappige zuren, rijke satijnen tannines en een lange, goed gedefinieerde afdronk, waardoor hij kracht en elegantie tegelijk uitstraalt. Daardoor past hij uitstekend bij rood vlees, wild, charcuterie en rijpe kazen: de zuren snijden door vet en vettere sauzen, de tannines vullen eiwitten aan en het geconcentreerde fruit verzacht de aardse tonen van wild en gerijpte kazen; probeer hem bij gegrilde of geroosterde côte de boeuf of entrecote, langzaam gestoofd rundvlees of hertenbiefstuk met rozemarijn en zwarte peper, bij stevige charcuterie en bij oude Comté of andere rijpe, licht pittige kazen voor een perfecte harmonie.
