Tasting notes
The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru has a very reduced nose that smothers the fruit and deprives it of terroir expression. The palate is framed by powdery tannins, a little meaty in style, with savoury red fruit and a rather dry bretty finish. I cannot see a long prospect for this Les Suchots. I cannot believe this is representative. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Two parcels of vines, one 85 years old, the other 40–45 years old. Bright, pale cherry . Rich nose of sweet red berries and soft fruits: strawberry, raspberry and red cherry. Quite rich and rounded, sweet and concentrated. Long length, fine tannins and really enduring finish. Classic Burgundy? Succulent, but young. Agreeable and digeste . (MH)
The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru is quite backward on the nose, maybe just missing a little joie-de-vivre at the moment, a bit "sulky" compared to other crus from the Domaine. The palate is much more expressive: edgy red berry fruit, a lovely touch of white pepper and thyme, in fact, you could imagine there being 10-20% stems when in fact, there are none. Persistent on the finish, this Suchots seems to be intending on biding its time.
