Very drying

This is a Latricières of lace and grace yet the supporting tannins are fine but dense and should have no trouble seeing this through an extended aging curve

cedar and leather aromas come to the forefront along with whiffs of underbrush and blue flower

Shows very good clarity and lift on the palate

complex and nicely balanced finish

Gerard Mugneret, Vosne Romanee Suchots Vintage:2016 Very drying(from 40+ year old vines). There is just enough reduction to hide all but subtle floral and spice wisps. The round, delicious and velvet textured middle weight plus flavors manage to retain a lovely sense of both detail and energy, all wrapped in a refined and again youthfully austere finish. This is also really lovely and very Suchots in character and in contrast to the Brles, a wine that should be reasonably approachable in its youth. (90 93) 2026+
