The last bottle of my 2012 Vosne Romanée from Alain Hudelot Noëllat and its a wonderful show that it manage to put up. Like a grand dame in its golden years bit with a hell of a spirit its displaying evolving characters of dried strawberries, rose petals, blood orange and menthol that is backed up by a prominent choir of nutmeg, clove, truffles, wet stones and forrest floor. Fresh palate with very present but smooth tannins, an expansive palate as the encore slowly fades out in a very respectful and balanced finish.
Day 2 tasting and its pumped up, more nuanced, defined and dresses up to its teeth in elegance. The last bottle of six will leave its mark for sure. Divine!

Another of the 12’s caught at the climax of its maturity where all the clusters, from the slightly dried red fruit profile all the way down to the savoury and damp forrest floor is well defined and represented. Elegant and carressing palate with a silky texture and a proud posture, developing through a long finish. It’s Bourgogne alright and it is whipping it, whipping it real good.
