Les Suchots Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir
The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru, en magnum, has a clean and precise bouquet, tightly-wound at first, perhaps lean to those accustomed to more fruit driven Burgundy of late. Yet there is real tension here. The palate is medium-bodied and pliant on the entry with pointed acidity. There's a slight tapering towards the finish that you don't usually find with this climat. It is actually meliorated in the glass, so don't be afraid to decant. Tasted at Stannery Wines' producer tasting in London. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

Notes from La Paulee 2023 in NYC. Chinese five spices. Elevated tannins. Stony minerality. Ripe berries - red strawberry, blueberry, blackberry. Med acidity. LONG finish.

Nov 10th, 2022Classic vosne nose. Light and stunning nose- roses, soft cherry. Light bodied but very pretty. Precise and detailed. You need to leave in to notice but delicate and pretty.

Aug 27th, 2022A lovely Vosne nose. Roses, pretty cherry, plummy preserves, a bit of wildness. Very poised and translucent on the palate. Not a big wine, but real character. Lovely

Jul 2nd, 2018In a great spot. Porcini, subtle brown spice, dried red fruits. Refined tannins, delicate acidity and fruit through the finish. Sexy Suchots from a fave producer.
