Tasting notes
Medium to dark ruby-colored, the 1999 Vosne-Romanee Les Genevrieres offers a beguiling nose of violets, assorted flowers, and fresh fruits. Medium-bodied, plummy and dense, this is a fat, feminine, lovely wine. It is packed with layers of sweet, ripe fruit that lasts throughout its admirably long finish. Projected maturity: 2002-2010. Importer: Martine's Wines, San Raphael, CA; tel. (415) 485-1800.

Bright red-ruby. Cassis, raspberry and dark chocolate on the tangy nose. Intense dark berry flavors brightened by ripe, harmonious acidity. This has real verve. Finishes with big but ripe, chocolatey tannins and very good length.
