Château de la Tour Clos Vougeot Grand Cru - 1988 (1.5 Liter) Hunter Valley but it would not surpriseThe 1988 Labet & Dechelette Chateau de la Tour Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a well regarded wine, particularly for its vintage, which was considered excellent in Burgundy. It is praised for its deep ruby color, complex nose with notes of raspberry, cherry, and toasty oak, and a long finish. Some describe it as having a youthful austerity that gives way to structured flavors. Wine Searcher notes that the wine is referred to as Cuvee Classique
