March 20, 2022 - Cork marked to within a centimeter of it's top but solid. Still a good red. The most beautiful expression of Vosne-Romanee at 30 years on the nose - elegant small red fruits with complexity. Just a touch of forest floor on the palate now, overlaying detailed red fruits which are ripe but only just and by the second glass there is also a sensation of a little greenness. Silky juicy Vosne texture. Still a little fine grained tannin and enough acid to give a certain resonance in the mouth. Lacks a little length. Even at its venerable age this is very Vosne and a wine of evident merit, as befits its prestigious location in the village. Better I expect ten years ago but still with plenty to offer. Drink soon. Bought on release.
A bottle tasted two years ago had a less impressive cork and some dry tannins.1 person found this helpful 378 views
