  PNP into Riedel Performance Pinot Noir ("Leaf" to "No" day): Pale bright garnet to the eyes.
  
  Noticeably a step-up on the complexity on the nose with sous bois (more mushroom like), smoky florals, dark red and black wild berries and cherries.
  
  Very nicely integrated on the palate. Again the texture here is what set this apart. Mellow and complex but sadly not the longest finish here.
  
  94-95 points easy.

  Classic Rouget...light ethereal, friand, small strawberries, perfectly balanced, silky, so much Vosne style, weightless, effortless, Burgs like this, you could drink a whole bottle alone...:)

  Best villages: Similar aromatic and lifted nose to the Cathiard with a little more VA. Incredibly seductive and open-knit wine that showed the purity of 2010 fruit well - was thinking that this was either a 2005 or 2010 as it clearly came from a warmer year without being unbalanced. More overt pepper spice notes, some tea leaves, perhaps from the greater oak use than the Cathiard but it didn't come across as obtrusive. Couldn't decide between this or the 09 Cathiard as WOTN, both top notch wines.

  An excellent village wine. Dusty red fruits on the nose with some baking spices. Clean and mineral inviting additional sniffs to unearth the various aromas, appealing! On the palate, again clean, velvetty and long. Dry & mineral, wrapped in red fruits, with good length. The body is what grounds me in the fact this is a village wine. A bargain at E50 purchase price.

  One of my very favourite wine makers/masters.
  
  Truly magical Pinot, all the way from Cros Parantoux to this Vosne Romanee. Just a lovely seducing Vosne. The perfume is nice but not overwhelming, although for sure Pinot, but followed by an enticing, if not addictive pronounced pinot noir personality in the mouth, so recognizable Rouget, with that magic Rouget personality lingering for a minute and more. If you want to experience what Rouget is about, and frankly; what makes Vosne Romanee great at ties, this wine is an "affordable" (realy?) way to get the gist of that. Worth the money.
  
  Yes the Echezeaux and Cros Parantoux are big, incredible wines, but the beauty of the Vosne Romanee is that it clearly stems from the same aristocrat roots. Lovely!
