The only wine which has been racked, the Vosne-Romanée includes the young vines of all the other cuvées, both new plantings and individual vine replacements. Usually there is no whole bunch vinification for this cuvée, but this year 30% has been employed, from mature vines only. Medium purple, lightly floral, with no great power to the nose. Lovely strawberry and soft raspberry notes behind, a peppery finish. An attractive, balanced, Vosne-Romanée. Tasted: November 2021
A very spicy dark berry fruit nose is trimmed in subtle wood influence. The super-sleek, intense and utterly delicious middle weight flavors possess a succulent, even velvety texture before culminating in a lingering if mildly tangy finish that I suspect is due to the abundant gas. Note: a blend of 1/3 Les Vigneux and 2/3 declassified fruit from the lower portion of the 1er Aux Brûlées; 30% whole clusters Drink: 2026+
