Really exceeded my expectations. Nice ripe red fruits with upfront Vosne spice. Well framed by lively texture. A real crowd pleaser with a more serious edge then a mere village wine would typically indicate.

(A l’av) Nez pas très pur de pinot solaire et boisé, pourtant en bouche il a gardé de la fraicheur. Mais il manque de charme, de profondeur, de gourmandise. Un peu sérieux, il n’a jamais deployé de fruité, restant sur qq epices, notes de sous-bois et de fourrure; si la structure est encore vaillante bien que prosaique, le nez est vraiment flingué, peut-être trop evolué. Déception pour un vosne, et confirmation que je n’adore pas A. Gros!

Monthly Tuesday group "The Dead Sparrow" #023; Vosne Romanée (By VD): The bouquet is not extremely expressive but has red berries and cheese impressions. On the palate locked, a lot of fresh acidity, earth, autumn impressions and soft, well integrated tannin. Some licorice and overall a subtle wine.

Lots of cherry aromas and flavors, clearly ripe, but fresh and nicely textured for the vintage at this age. Very charming baking spice. Moderate length and depth.

Ripe black and red cherry with sweet baking spice. Moderate length and finesse, but super fun.
