  Coravin. 13% alcohol. Medium ruby, clear; medium intensity aromatics, red fruited; palate is medium body, red fruited, balanced acidity and alcohol; medium finish. Similar to my last 2 notes, this is a balanced and enjoyable burgundy but not particularly complex. 88
  1 hr air: balanced out a bit, lovely fruit with balanced tannin. 89

  Light-medium ruby, limited bricking for its age; aromatic, some spice, some floral, plenty of red fruits that are still youthful; palate is light-medium bodied, some Vosne spice throughout, tannins are medium-minus and a bit more textured than typical in Vosne, good red fruited flavor throughout with just a bit of fading in the midpalate which shows the tannins more, medium-plus acidity which balances well and provides freshness, medium-minus alcohol (13%); finish is medium length. I think perhaps a touch better than my last bottle, showing more spice and aromatics today, but overall impression is similar that this is a great everyday village-level burgundy with a good amount of age but nothing life changing. Nothing wrong with that... 89. Will certainly last 5 more years but may not evolve further.

  Great Vosne nose--but not enough fruit and too much acid to be balanced right now. I think Tardy is a great buy in very ripe vintages but in perfect vintages it's a bit too acidic.

  Minimal sediment. Light ruby but very little bricking and quite youthful for Pinot; moderately aromatic with fresh red fruits, just slight spice; palate is light bodied, elegant medium-plus acid, medium-minus alcohol (13%), simple red fruits, light spice; finish is medium-minus length. On one hand a very nice simple entry-level burgundy with restrained alcohol and fabulous ability to pair with food as well as a certain elegance, but on the other hand lacks complexity and the aromatics and spice common in Vosne. For $52, this doesn't offer value but I will continue to enjoy the bottles I have left for the next few years as this seems ready without much significant improvement ahead of it. 88
  Day 2: didn’t hold up as well. Next time preserve with little bottles or a coravin, or drink on the 1st day.

  Very nice Villages Vosne. Nice sweet red fruits. Vosne spice. Incredible QPR. The reviewer notes are conservative in their rating of this wine. This is an awesome wine!
