...shows a minuscule touch of VA on the nose, but not enough to cover the intense brambly red fruit underneath, or the veins of blueberry and violet; instead, it lends energy to the aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, a killer line of acidity, and firm but fine, satin-textured tannins. This is full of energy and tension and finishes amazingly long and reassuringly luxuriant. Utterly sublime, and it surpasses my expectations from barrel...
...complex and perfumed bouquet soars from the glass in a blaze of red and black plums, black raspberries, black cherries, a very complex base of soil tones, raw cocoa, Vosne spices, musky floral tones and nutty new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very pure on the attack, with a sappy core, great mineral drive, fine-grained tannins and outstanding focus and grip on the very long, very, very complex finish. Great juice.
...complexity and anticipation that you might expect from a grand cru: a touch of spice, dusty, chalky and with rare tannic finesse. Mineral but fruity and such incredible purity. There’s a hint of the oak but it is very much in the background. Fine-boned, bone dry and with incredible length.
