Red Wine from Vosne Romanee

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA91-93 points) The 2013 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru les Beaux Monts has the most understated of the premier cru Vosne aromatics at the moment. This needs a little more coaxing from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with...

Burghound, 94 points: (91-94) Reduction. Interestingly, the palate impression of the medium weight flavors is even finer with terrific vibrancy and minerality where the intensity really builds from the mid-palate on back to the explosively...

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 96 points: Gorgeous light purple, sunshine in the glass, beautiful elegance here. Real depth of fruit despite the superficial lightness, and very harmonious. Sweetly ripe but still with enough tension, some violets creeping in here...

Wine & Spirits, 91 points: There’s a beautiful, dark-fruited wine here, waiting for oxygen to bring it to life. At first, it seems volatile, with an onion-like reductive scent, black, smoky and heavily influenced by its oak. But there’s also an...

Burghound, 93 points: (BH90-93 points) Strong menthol dominates the nose. The mouth feel of the middle weight flavors is less precise but more seductive than those of the Petits Monts thanks to the abundance of the palate coating dry extract...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: The 2016 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts wafts from the glass with a rich bouquet of ripe cherries, wild berries, sweet spices and smoked meats. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and gourmand...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: (92 - 94+ points) The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Malconsorts is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis, plums, spices, smoked duck, potpourri and rich soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, rich...

Burghound, 93 points: (90-93 points) A ripe and very spicy nose features notes of sandalwood, tea, rose petal and a hint of lilac. I very much like the sleek, even satiny, texture to the nicely vibrant flavors that conclude in a slightly...

Burghound, 92 points: (90-92 points) This too displays just enough reduction to blur the underlying detail of the nose. Otherwise there is an elegant and seductive inner mouth perfume to the velvet-textured middle weight flavors that evidence...

Wine Spectator, 93 points: There's beautiful purity here, offering rose, cherry, cinnamon and mineral aromas and flavors, backed by a solid, well-integrated structure. Harmonious and long, with plenty of fruit echoing on the aftertaste. Best from...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: (90-92 points) The 2016 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Chaumes felt a little closed compared to the Beaux Monts, at least at this stage. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin, good acidity, quite spicy in the mouth...
