Vosne-Romanée Les Chalandins

2015 - A mild, wet winter & spring, then a hot dry summer led to some risk of overripe fruit, cooler in late just before harvest. Yields slightly below average.

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.

All vintages: Fruit from a 1.14ha parcel within Les Chalandins, north in Vosne bordering Flagey Échezeaux. Vines averaging 45 years. 100% de-stemmed fruit, aged in oak, no mention of new oak but there may be some use depending on vintage (max 25%).

Tasting Note: 2016 - Ripe aromas of cherry and red plums with hints of forest floor, violets. Medium-bodied on the palate with juicy red fruits and stony mineral, vibrant acidity, fine tannins, and lengthy finish.
