Popped this for an hour before raising the glass. Coincidentally the same Italian restaurant. Remembered it to be more enjoyable the first time though I do believe we paired it wrongly with the food. Not giving up.

See previous notes. This is now my staple wine. Young but so enjoyable after a two hour aeration in bottle. Fat, dense, with dark fruits and sophisticated structure. Will see how the 2020 compares to the 18s.

See previous notes this is very young but so hard to resist. Dark ruby color, lots of dark red berries, cherries, liquid stone, Vosne spices. On the palate very vivid, mineral, raspberries and dark red fruit, expands mid palate, still tannic and finishes fat and long. Lovely now I can only imagine how it will be in 15 years if my stock lasts.

See previous notes. Such a delicious medium bodied to full bodied wine with rich opulent black and dark red berries, lots of earthiness and leather as this bottle was decanted, notes of stone and pepper on the long gamey finish.

So young but lovely. Opened bottles and left standing to aerate for three hours. Perfumed red berries, lots of stone and mineral notes, some gaminess, finishes fat and long.

So young but so good. Quintessentially Vosne with spices, dark red fruit, a mineral stony edge, medium bodied on the palate, fragrant nose, purity and ripeness of fruit so evident, finishes fat, expansive with filigree soft tannins. Medium bodied I would enjoy this now or over a few decades.

Young but oh so good. Black and dark red cherries, berries, spicy Vosne notes, some rocks. Medium bodied, extremely well crafted, enjoyable young finishes long. Simply delicious.

Surprised me in the night. Wasn’t sure what to expect and it ticked all the boxes for a burgundy that I’m learning more and more about. Medium bodied, rounded, elegant, long finish with a perfect blend of fruit. No dryness in any part as you sipped and swallowed.

Dark ruby red color. Sunny vintage evident on the nose with dark red and black berries, spices, some stems, cocoa powder, crushed rocks. Elegant on the palate, intense mid palate, finishes fat and long.

I want to buy a lot more bottles so to taste this beauty in 10 or 15 years! Delicious young and will only improve. Very dark ruby color, nose wafts from the glass of spicy red and black fruit, berries, some hints of graphite, very brooding. Fat on the palate, great acidity, superb structure, refined dark red and black berries, finishes fat, medium bodied and will gain more complexity with time. Millesime solaire and I quite like this.

Terrific Vosne-Romanée very young but complex and rich nonetheless. Opened bottle and aerated then drank over 90 minutes. Best towards the end with blackish ruby dense color. On the nose lots of meat, blood, iron, red and black fruits, spices well reflected on the palate. Extremely well crafted wine, bright dark red spicy fruit with perfume and a fat finish. Beautiful wine.

Wow young but so delicious. Opened bottle for two hours then drank over two. Ruby red color, spicy dark red fruits and berries, slight gaminess. Amazing on the palate so refined but decent power, fat and structured and a long finish.

Dark fruit, spicy, brooding on the nose. Good structure and acidity on the palate, layers of fruit. Ripe but well balanced with very good length. 92-93+
