This was much better than my last bottle and although clearly fully mature, was on a very pleasant plateau rather than a downhill slope. This was maybe more animal than one would expect of Vosne, but still exhibits some richness of fruit, without the added interest from tertiary development being anything as coarse as barnyard. Fully ready now, I'll drink my remaining bottle within the year.

A good effort for a village wine, but it is beginning to fade, with a touch of astringency creeping in on the palate. Things smoothed out once it came up to temperature and had had some air, but it didn't really sing in that silky way that a Vosne should.

Gorgeous deep red fruits with a terrific linearity throughout. Would never have guessed a villages, but a testament to the producer and the vintage and grapes that have to punch above their designation.

Upon opening the nose had cool fruits, mineral and a bit of animale. Structure still very much in tact and balanced. Still drinking well given its village. Very good with lamb chops.
