Vosne Romanée, Aux Malconsorts, 1er Cru, 2016

justerini & brooks tasting note

Bright and bold. Well-framed fresh and floral notes of morello cherry and griotte. The high notes of fruit blossom and violet are underlaid by more savoury, earthy notes. Big in structured but fine, chalky tannins, high in definition and intensity too. Fermented with two-thirds whole bunch, aged in 55% new oak barriques.

critic reviews

93-96/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

(vinified with two-thirds whole clusters and aged in 60% new oak; no frost damage here but the yield was just under 40 hectoliters per hectare): Healthy dark red. Explosive aromas of black raspberry, cocoa powder and espresso. Wonderfully sweet and savory, offering very intense yet silky flavors of black raspberry and minerals framed by harmonious acidity. Really outstanding inner-mouth energy and definition here! The resounding finish features firm, chalky tannins and terrific length and lift. This wine comes from vines at the top of this premier cru on hard limestone.
