Saturated ruby/purple-colored, the 1997 Vosne-Romanee Les Beauxmonts displays fresh aromas laced with spicy baked fruits. It is opulent, thick, rich, and sexy. Layers of cherry syrup, mocha, candied blackberries, and hoisin are found in its hedonistic, medium-to-full-bodied personality, as well as throughout its immensely impressive finish. Drink this beauty over the next 6-7 years. Importer: Martine's Wines, San Raphael, CA; tel. (415) 485-1800.
Good deep red. Sappy, floral aromas of kirsch, violet and oriental spices; complex and enticing. Sweet and rich in the middle palate, with a lovely layered texture. A very gently styled wine that has benefitted from a soft bottling. Finishes with ripe, dusty tannins.
