Tasting notes
(from a mix of Les Jacquines, Champs Perdrix, Hautes-Maizières and Les Vigneux). A discreetly spicy and appealingly elegant nose reflects notes of fresh purple fruit, violet and a hint of sandalwood. There is lovely delineation and verve to the lighter weight, delicious and attractively textured flavors that deliver fine depth and length on the dusty and well-balanced finale.

The 2015 Vosne-Romanee Village, matured in 40% new oak, offers ripe kirsch and redcurrant scents on the nose, hints of honey and marmalade indicative of what was a warm growing season. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannin. There is impressive body and weight, although I would be seeking more finesse and delineation towards the finish by the time of bottling. It is a little sinewy at the moment, but it should gain more complexity with bottle age. Dec 2016, www.robertparker.com
