This is such an aromatically pretty Gamay, with floral, redfruits and some faint violets as well, great balance, soft tannins, just a slight chalky note in the end palate that leads to a lovely, lingering finish, I guess this is what Gamay tastes like when made by an excellent Cote Rotie producer!! — 2 months ago

Going through the old stash, drinking nicely. Earthy but light on its feet, complexity just enough to make it interesting with mature dark red fruit notes and medium finish. — 7 months ago

As far as I know, 1988 was the first commercial release of the “Les Hautes Maizières” and frankly, first from the Domaine itself. This bottle was opened just prior to service and enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 1988 Vosne-Romanée “Les Hautes Maizières” pours a hazy ruby color with a translucent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears and some signs of fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of desiccated red and dark fruit: strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, dried red flowers, mushrooms, sous bois and soft baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin (fully integrated) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and there’s a lovely, silky texture. There can’t be too many of these bottles still lying around in cellars so this is a rare treat! Drinking so very well right now so I’d suggest doing just that. — 2 days ago
