  Wonderful nose with red fruit, whole cluster elements intermixed with sous bois and animalic elements. Cool and restraint, early drinking window. Very elegant, sappy finish. A great Vosne 1er Cru.

  Textbook example of Vosne 1er, gorgeous Vosne spice on the nose, truly remarkable transparency on the palate. This is as elegant and fine a Vosne-Romanee as one could hope for, delightful now with a brilliant future ahead of it. Very impressive.

  Drank at a restaurant. At peak maturity right now. Depth and complexity hand in hand but retained fruit and freshness ensures the wine's longivity on the palate.
  
  Drink.

  A little closed, but opens with air.
  Would save a few years for tannins to soften.

  Took delivery of 3 bottles and popped open the one with slightly lower fill - cork was soaked half way and a bit soft. This was immediately appealing and drinkable, put in decanter and followed for the next few hours. Appealing initially in a lithe but lovely way the aromas on both the nose and palate deepened with some air. Gorgeous nose with Vosne spice and strong mineral under tow, on the palate a nicely focused acidic display of concentrated red fruit, positively saline, just makes you come back and back for the next sip. It's the kind of wine that makes you nod, smile and think yeah, lovely 1er Cru Burg from when a strong year, vineyard and producer conspire. The only way this could be better and I would score higher is if the fruit was a tad sweeter, but that is picking nits. My dilemma will be what to do with the remaining two bottles, this is drinking but will probably be very rewarding to cellar too. Well, if history is of any guide in those situations bottles don't tend to get too old in my house, sigh..
