A veritable spice cupboard of aromas greets the nose followed by ripe, effusive, supple, sappy, super saturated flavors and outstanding length. This is long, reasonably dense and finishes with a trace of chocolate. I very much like the intensity of the finish. Tasted multiple times with consistent notes.
Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru 1999 – This wine was made from a second harvest that took place a few days after the initial harvest in La Tache.The wine in medium to dark ruby-coloured and has a rose, violet and red cherry-scented nose. Medium bodied, lush and expansive, it is fresh, filled with crunchy red and black berries, and has an impressively long, sweet, tannin-filled finish. Anticipated maturity: 2003 – 2010.
