Image
Nominated by Jebulon (talk) on 2010-05-04 22:59 (UTC)
Scope Nominated as the most valued image on Commons within the scope:
Clos-Vougeot
Used in Global usage
Reason This vineyard of bourgogne is one of the most famous in the world. This picture shows the buildings, the nature of the ground and the situation of a great part of the vineyard in the landscape of Burgundy. The photograph is not so bad. It's the best in the scope, I think. -- Jebulon (talk)
Review
(criteria)
  •  Question fr: has fr:Château du Clos de Vougeot and fr:Clos-vougeot (AOC), not the spelling clos vougeot? --Ikar.us (talk) 09:27, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • I see, the article mentions the alternative spelling. But I'm afraid I have to  Oppose and set up a MVR. --Ikar.us (talk) 23:10, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Now I see that plants and ground are best visible on this image. So I'm  Neutral and wait for the priorities of other reviewers. --Ikar.us (talk) 23:45, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Please, read carefully the reasons for nominating : on the other picture I don't see the buildings were the wine is made, I don't understand the geographical situation of the vineyard, I see a path but not the ground... And on this picture, I can see a great part of the enclosure, which is the wall in the background. Behind the wall, it's another vineyard, and not Clos-Vougeot (or Clos de Vougeot). Respectfully, I think that this MVR is not relevant...--Jebulon (talk) 22:14, 9 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question What is its subject? I don't see the page used on any Pedia entry so I could not distinguish what is trying to be shown. The house? The vines (since it is labelled as a vineyard)? Both? France in general? It is hard to determine "Must illustrate its subject well." without some clarification. By the way, there seem to be many pictures in the category with some of a higher quality.

  •  Support It is best candidate IMO. Good resolution, quality and composition is well illustrative --George Chernilevsky talk 15:44, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Question By the way, shouldn't the spelling be "Clos-Vougeot", with a dash, to designate the vineyard? --Myrabella (talk) 09:08, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Support I took the liberty of amending the scope typo but let's wait for the nominator's confirmation. I was hesitating: in fact my favorite has long been File:Chateau du clos de Vougeot 2.JPG because there the building is less prominent and we can better see the undulating ground (and I prefer vineyards in autumn but it's a personal fancy). However the enclosure wall is more visible in the nominated image—it's an important feature—, and this one is of higher technical quality. --Myrabella (talk) 08:19, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment I agree with the scope amendment. The difference between 'clos-de-vougeot', 'Clos Vougeot', 'clos-vougeot' and 'Clos-Vougeot' (or Clos-de-Vougeot') is very subtle. But for the vineyard, as I understand, the best spelling seems to needing a dash. Next summer, I'll go to visit this location another time, and I'll ask local people for you. I'll try to take other views too. By the way, thanks everybody for this interesting review. For Ikar.us: yes, the win is made here. 80 owners, for 50 Hektaren. ---Jebulon (talk) 22:22, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
