Tasting notes
Mid to light crimson. Seductive dark fruit, ripe and sweet but still fresh. Rounded and gentle on the palate but with the dark fruit shining out. The oak sweetness undergirds the fruit but lets it take the lead. (JH)

Raised in 30% new oak, the 2014 Vosne Romanée Village Clos de la Fontaine, a monopole of the family, has quite a dense bouquet with scents of wild strawberry and warm gravel, nicely defined and handling the oak well. The palate is rounded on the entry with supple tannin. The acidity is well judged with good density, the texture is creamy towards the finish. Give it a year after bottling.
