2016 Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots

nose - black raspberry, dark cherry, smoky perhaps smoke barrel influenced
mouth - dark raspberry, darker than expected for burgundy fruit with a hint of char that reminds me a touch of priorat (on the attack). settles down on the midpalate, with nice vosne spice and good acidity. this is a good wine but i think the oak treatment is overdone and renders it atypical for suchots and vosne in general. the bottle of 2017 we had several months back was spoiled/bacterial contaminated, surmise I from trying to utilize instead of new oak rather older and perhaps less than clean used barrels?... only but a hypothesis, i suspect this cuvee by now is hitting its stride.

a great combo of verve, sweet, minerality and acidity makes this a lovely drink. even more acidity would make it better. it has a lovely mouthfeel, reminiscent of suede and i quite enjoyed rolling this around my mucous membranes. flavors of flowers and baked apples with a long finish. delicious.
