justerini & brooks tasting note

Alluring and seductive dark autumn berry fruit flavours together with spice, sap and mineral notes. Stunningly long, layered; so complete. A very serious wine that will need a good eight years of bottle age to attain its clearly great potential. Breathtaking. From well-drained rocky, clay sand-based soils, less compact and less clay-based than Suchots so not as round but with more structure and minerals. One of the top Vosne Premier Cru vineyards situated next door to the Boudots of Nuits-St.-Georges, making wines that show a similar power but with a silky Vosne texture.

critic reviews

94+/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2013 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru has a typically powerful bouquet with macerated small dark cherries, a hint of dark chocolate and loamy aromas that envelop the senses, developing more floral top notes with aeration. The palate is supple and silky smooth, very sensual with black cherries, boysenberry and spice with just a slight bitterness on the persistent finish. It is probably a decade too young to drink this, so keep any bottles in the cellar for several years. Tasted at 21 Boulevard restaurant in Beaune.
