Score 93/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Mar 2007

Jean-Nicolas Méo served his stunning 1991 Vosne-Romanée Cros Parantoux. Sweet, ethereal and delicate, it hovered over the palate in a display of incredible class and elegance.

Score 91/100 · Drink 1997-2008, Robert Parker, Dec 1993

The 1991 Vosne-Romanee-Cros Parantoux is more tannic and structured than the Les Brulees. Deep ruby/purple-colored, yet more closed from an aromatic standpoint, it is rich and full, with exceptional concentration, and a ripe, long, moderately tannic finish. Approachable now, I would suggest 3-4 years of cellaring and an optimum drinking time of 1997-2008. This firm does a spectacular job with its two premier crus from Vosne-Romanee. While the Vosne-Romanee-Les Brulees (yields of only 15-20 hectoliters per hectare) and the Vosne-Romanee-Cros Parantoux (a Richebourg look-alike) may be premier crus in name and price, they are grand crus in quality. Both are must purchases in 1991 if you are a burgundy fanatic. Importer: Martine's Wines, San Rafael, CA. NOTES ON THE 1992s FROM BARREL: Meo's 1992s are among the most successful wines made in the Cote de Nuits in that vintage. They are even softer than the 1991s, with excellent concentration for the vintage.
