Vosne Romanee, En Orveaux, 1er Cru, 2014

A quiet, brooding, smoky and stony reduction on the nose belies the sheer brilliance and energy of the palate. Intense but very fine, offering lacy, cool, mineral-licked blueberry and sloe fruit with hints of crushed stone and oyster shell. Stunning. A high-toned Vosne well situated next to Grands Echezeaux and opposite Musigny. From a parcel of 50 year old vines.
