The 1996 Beaune Clos de la Feguine reveals a saturated ruby color, aromas of freshly cut flowers and smoke. A deeply ripe, explosive, medium-bodied, silky, and feminine wine, it also has traces of sur-maturite, evident in this delicious offering's cherry, raspberry, and floral flavor profile. It is a wine that will provide considerable pleasure in the near-term. Drink it by 2001.
This wine is produced from an enclosed parcel of vines nestled between Au Coucherias and Aux Cras.
