Sweet red cherries and spices can be found in the aromatics of the ruby-colored 1997 Clos Vougeot. This soft, silky-textured, jammy wine has a medium-to-full body, and a plump flavor profile that reveals creamed cherry flavors. Opulent, forward, and slightly warm (alcohol), this offering does not have the structure required for aging and should be consumed over the next 4-5 years. Vincent Mongeard, who now runs this famous estate, is extremely happy with his 1997s. "When I compare my wines to those of my colleagues, I am comforted in what I was able to achieve. Even though it is not the vintage of the century, it is certainly extremely good." Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel (205) 980-8802.
