Tasting Notes

A pretty, fresh and layered nose reflects notes of red currant, lavender, violet and subtle spice notes. There is a really lovely and highly seductive texture to the satiny flavors that culminate in a firm and mildly robust but not really rustic finish. This is worth checking out.

Score: 88 - 91

The 2016 Vosne Romanee was picked on 29 September, blended with 30% whole bunch and 40% new oak barrels. It has a pure, floral bouquet with attractive blueberry and cassis fruit complementing the strawberry aromas. The palate is smooth and rounded on the entry. Maybe I would have just dialed down the new oak a little as it has a loud voice toward the finish, but it feels harmonious and sensual, which is what you want from a Vosne-Romanée.

Score: 87 - 89

Subtle confected fruit on the nose, fully loaded palate with weight and fragrance and persistence. Dry and relatively light in body, but there is great core flavour that persists on the finish, and a touch of soy character to give complexity.

Score: 17 - 18
