Tasted at the Comte Liger-Belair vertical at the Château de Vosne. The 2009 Vosne-Romanée Clos du Château clearly has more fruit concentration on the nose compared to the 2007 and 2008: sensual red cherries mixed with raspberry and orange blossom. I like how seamlessly the oak is integrated here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and a crisp line of acidity. This is the oldest vintage that feels as if it could benefit from more bottle age. This is very fine. Tasted June 2015. - Neal Martin

This is both very fresh and very Vosne in basic character with a highly floral and spiced nose that offers up notes of anise clove and hoisin on the plum and blue berry fruit aromas. The palate impression is one of round and suave yet well-delineated medium-bodied flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension on the sappy finish. This is a bit more firmly structured and should also be well worth considering as it is an excellent villages.- Comments: Outstanding Drink: 2019+Note: a monopole of the Domaine with 35+ year old vines and much rockier soil than Columbière - 100% new wood
