Les Orveaux Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Pinot Noir

Long and elegant and a bit toasty. Menthol, hints of earth and smoke, cranberry, pomegranate.

This is the kind of Burgundy that turns people into addicts. Tasting it blind, I thought it was grand cru, and I am grateful that @Jim Westby opened it for us! I found it beety, catnip like, full of voluptuous dark fruit, savory complexity and yet still refreshing and focused. It was extraordinary with our Dijon chicken with nameko mushrooms!

Black cherry, damp earth, sweet oak

Tired. Candied fruit, muted aromatics.

Very nice in mid-youth—granite, camphor, great aroma, girded tannins, structure à point.

Beautiful with duck breast and fuck fat potatoes. Great fruit and beautiful balance.

Just can’t get enough of it

Another 05 that is drinking well showing lots of dark cherry with sweet spice, dried herbs, mineral & rose petal.

Restrained fruit with great mineralogy and a wonderful , earthy finish

Got this for a great price and it delivered. Tons of barnyard funk when I uncorks it; worried that it hadn't been stored properly. I poured it an hour later and it was drinking great. Rich and full bodied paired perfectly with our Beef bourguinon. It was the highlight wine for our guest.
