Tasting notes
This is very spicy on the nose, both in terms of the fruit and a hint of oak influence. Fleshy in the mouth with some cashmere texture. This has good concentration with a real Vosne hallmark.

Good medium red. High-toned aromas of redcurrant, raspberry, pepper and spices, plus a whiff of horseradish from the oak. Savory, spicy and tactile on the palate, with a light touch and enticing perfume to the flavors of red berries, pepper, spices and fresh herbs. Finishes with serious dusty tannins and some spicy high notes. Still a bit tight.
