  October 29, 2014 - Having just finished a great, though rather evolved (even on opening), bottle of 2010 Blain Gagnard Volnay Les Pitures 1er opened a couple of days ago, I headed down to the cellar having decided to look at a 2003. What better than a Les Suchots, the heart of Vosne Romanee and typically reserved and not too powerful. How would 03 impacted on the climat?
  First impression is primary ripe red fruit, 10 years and still a baby though big tannins are there to overpower the fruit, a balancing act. My thought is that the fruit is so youthful and sweet, almost Californian, it is a keeper. Day two update and the wine has not moved - a keeper.
