Silky and harmonious, as Petits Monts should be. However, this tastes very advanced for its age, no primary fruit left whatsoever and instead it has a leathery character very reminiscent of tempranillo. If this were a 20-year-old Rioja I'd be a fan but it's not an encouraging profile for a Vosne-Romanee 2 or 3 years past release.

Nose - toasty and sweet Mouth - lovely, lively, fine and elegant, tea, light cherry fruit with that sappy core that makes burgundy nimble yet special
