Tasting notes
Across a path from the main Malconsorts vineyard, next to La Tâche; ploughed by horse. Cask sample. The same fruit profile and perfume, but with an absolute elegance. Refined and complex and a generous slather of juicy acidity on top. (MH)

The 2020 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts Cuvée Christiane 1er Cru is 80% whole cluster, very different in aromatic profile to the regular cuvée, more ferrous with hints of red pepper infusing the red and black fruit. The palate is very well-defined and comparing side-by-side, this conveys more energy and tension than the regular cuvée, almost with greater precision towards the finish. Very long and tender, this is a marvellous Vosne-Romanée for long-term ageing. Closure: Diam
