Clos Vougeot Camille Giroud Magnum 1990
Clos Vougeot Camille Giroud Magnum 1990 is a dry, medium-bodied red from Pinot Noir (Vougeot, France), in the medium, savoury reds style. Tannins are moderate and acidity fresh; oak influence is some. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 36-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with duck, salmon, roast chicken, bolognese.

Clos Vougeot Camille Giroud 1990 is a red Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the historic Clos Vougeot walled vineyard in the Côte de Nuits. Characterised by the concentration of the solar 1990 vintage, the palate offers a dense core of black cherry and plum that has evolved into secondary notes of truffle, damp earth and leather. The tannins are now fully integrated and velvety, though they retain the classic Clos de Vougeot power. This wine has reached peak maturity, showcasing the deep, savory complexity that defines aged Grand Cru Burgundy from a benchmark year.
