  Just average, wouldn't be able to tell it's a top 1er blind.

  Clear medium ruby colour, paler rim, developing
  
  Nose is clean medium intense aromas of kirch, forest floor, leaf, wild strawberry, some oak, clove spice, quite complex, developing
  
  Palate is dry, mediun tannins, medium %, body and flavour intensity with aromas of kirch, strawberry, forrest floor and leafs, spice, clove and bark, medium+/long finish
  
  Well balanced typical Vosne-Romanee which you can drink now but will benefit from further storaging. Complex, especially the nose, good concentration and intense light red fruit which carries the finish, also secondary aromas that are developing, aromas are concentrated and this is a outstanding quality wine, 92-93p.
  
  This needed some air fully open, i will recommend 2 hours in an decanter or decant it and back in the bottle the day before consumption (what i did). Needs air but not as closed as the 2005 vintage.

  2013 editon of En Primeur - Kelly and Kevin’s excellent adventure; 3/26/2014-4/1/2014 (Mostly in Bordeaux and a night in Paris): Blackberries, black cherries, licorice, vosne spices and earth. As expected, excellent concentration, sweet ripe fruit driven palate impression and nicely integrated tannins. This will still require five years of additional cellaring. Very ripe wine with excellent concentration.

  Seems to have shut down considerably, nose did not reveal much aside from gravel and blackberries. Very structured palate, fine firm tannins, a hint of spice, but not revealing much else (especially fruitwise). Would not open for another 5 years at least.
