Tasting Notes

The 2013 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts is huge on the palate, with notable power and structure to burn. The flavors are bold in this decidedly intense Malconsorts. Pomegranate, red cherry and spice are some of the notes that take center stage as this dramatic Burgundy opens up in the glass. The Malconsorts was the last wine in the cellar to finish its malo. Although still a bit raw and unformed, the 2013 is super-impressive today.

Score: 93 - 96

Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2023-2043 01 April 2015

A brooding and ultra-fresh nose exhibits notably ripe and strikingly complex aromas of dark cherry and raspberry along with violet, lilac and a gorgeous range of spice elements. This is a big and robust effort with excellent volume and mid-palate concentration that delivers plenty of punch and power on the overtly mineral-driven and hugely long finish. While this will be approachable after only 7 to 8 years it will need fully 15 to reach its full potential. Textbook Malconsorts.

Score: 92 - 94

Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2028+ 15 January 2015

The 2013 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru les Malconsorts, raised 80% in new oak, has a slightly introspective nose at the moment: dark berry fruit, touch of bergamot here and there, but fleeting glimpses only. The palate is medium-bodied with a strict lattice of tannin. This is rigid and uncompromising with a stern saline finish that means business and perhaps as a consequence I find more nascent charm enveloping the Suchots at the moment. Cellar this for five or six years and it will surely reward those with patience.

Score: 92 - 94
