Vosne-Romanée
2016 - Devastating frost in April resulted in limited production for many, challenges combating mildew for some, but a warm dry summer helped to achieve good ripeness overall.
Fruit from parcels Champs Goudins (lower slope in the heart of Vosne) and La Croix Blanche (towards Nuits St Georges) totalling 0.7ha. Vine age ranges from 40-80 years. Partially destemmed fruit, aged in 228L tonneaux (20% new) for 18 months.
Tasting Note: 2014 - A wine of elegance and finesse, the 2014 Vosne-Romanée has aromas of raspberries and notes of leather. Medium-bodied, the palate is focused and truly reflects the terroir magnificently through the finish. The 2014 makes a great pairing with quail or duck.
2016 - Ripe aromas of raspberry, black and red plum, strawberry with red flowers, and oak spice. Medium-bodied, a deep savoury red & black fruit core, firm tannins, fresh acidity, with oak spice on the finish.
2017 - Aromas of plum, wild raspberry, cherry, and blackberry with hints of violets, crushed rock, and mushroom on the nose. Medium-bodied with good richness, a juicy red/dark berry core, good acidity, supple tannin, a slightly creamy texture, good length on a spicy finish
