Description

One bottle of this rare wine from a good vintage. Average retail price in the UK is currently £480 per bottle. Aggregated critic score on Winesearcher is 91/100. Not easy to come by.

Burgundy authority Clive Coates has said of Clos de Tart “today Clos de Tart has few peers, even among the great wines of Vosne and Gevrey….This is a first class estate producing one of the very best of Burgundy’s Grand Cru wines.”

Tasting note from Jancis Robinson:

“Lovely complex nose. Perfumed and lovely and none of the toughness of so many 1988s. Rich and complete and lovely now.” 17.5/20 (Tasted: 10-Dec-2009).

There are also some very positive recent notes on Cellartracker:

For a 1988 this is nicely resolved and integrated. No rough edges or acid spikiness that sometimes goes with this vintage. Just good old-school Grand Cru Burg. Nose gave it away as Burg immediately. Tasted blind, nobody guessed CdT. Guesses were all over, but because of how silky this seemed, the direction of guesses was more towards the Vosne/Chambolle side of things. I also detected a slight rusticity...like a bloody/animale thing...but just a hint. This is a lovely, complex wine.

This was beautiful and quite soft for an '88. Resolved and elegant and got better over the course of two hours. Fruit got brighter and more energetic. A complex mix sous bois, red fruits and hints of floral. Solid acidity and a nice line of minerality. My last few sips were around the 3 hour mark and it started to tighten up and show more '88 hardness. Gorgeous and in a great spot.

Lunch at FC SF: Wow what a winner. Had low expectations but holy cow this was a head turner. Such a complete wine and in a very good place. Wine was very clean and kept unfolding over the 3+ hour lunch. One of those I wish I had more of...

I have not had many good experiences with Clos de Tart. This was a wonderful exception. Quite similar to the 88 Rousseau CSJ in profile. A bit less length and complexity but not by much. Also quite wonderful tonight.

lovely maturity - nicely holding together with just a touch of age. Sylvain Pitiot's first vintage.

I bought this bottle from a Lancashire wine merchant many years ago and have cellared it properly since then. The bottle on sale is the one in the photographs. It is in decent condition for its age. There is some slight scuffing at the bottom centre of the main label and also some scuffing on the capsule as shown in the photographs.
