Though fruit aromas are predominant when the wine is young (red stone fruit, cherry), delicate spicy nuances are soon revealed. Though this wine's volume and length are underpinned by substancial robustness it is fine and elegant on the palate.
Enjoy with red meats, game served with a sauce, and most cheeses
This Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru originates from wines that grow on a slope in the commune of Flagey-Echezeaux overlooking the Echezeaux Grand Cru vineyards.
Aged for 14 to 18 months in 20 to 30% new French oak.
Burghound Review:
Subtle but by no means imperceptible wood frames an airy and layered mix of plum, red cherry, clove, violet and a hint of anise. There is again very good vibrancy to the delicious, caressing and much more mineral-driven medium-bodied flavors that exhibit focused power on the youthfully austere finish. This needs to develop more depth, but it has the potential to do so if allowed sufficient time in bottle. Outstanding Drink: 2031+
