Early birthday celebration: I was the only one who felt that this bore some similarities to the previous wine. Unfortunately got dissuaded from my original opinion that it was another H-N Vosne 1er but a different plot and vintage. Much more structured and masculine, the dark, brooding red fruit made me guess a more structured vintage like 2012. Surprised that it turned out to be a cool year and older than the Suchots, perhaps an indication that Malconsorts needs more time. Very enjoyable despite being rather tightly coiled.

Nose is quite spicy and elegant. On the palate, this has a lot of power and the most rounded appearance, as compared to the 2006 Hudelot-Noellat Beaumonts or Suchots. Wonderful but needs lots of time - will be very elegant.

Very well-balanced. Tannins noticeable but integrating. Excellent fruit; on the darker side. Should wait several years before opening again.
