2021 Joseph Drouhin Vosne-Romanee
Winemaker Notes: Supreme elegance! Beautiful colour, with intense and bright reflections. The diversity of the aromas is striking: wild cherry, nutmeg, camphor wood, fine leather... Later on, the wine takes on a subtle aroma of truffle, producing the most varied palette. With its perfect balance between tannin and acidity, the wine has a fleshy, sturdy body. Powerful and long aftertaste. A wealth of harmonious sensations characterizes this great Burgundy.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Vinous - "The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Village comes from three parcels. It has a pretty violet-tinged bouquet that is simple but effective, well-defined with red cherries and kirsch. The palate is balanced with moderate weight, pure red fruit with an appealing, slightly tart finish. This punches above its weight. Savour this over the next 8-10 years. (90-92pts)"
Burghound - "Outstanding Top Value. This is the first wine to display any appreciable reduction and it's enough to overshadow the underlying fruit. More interesting are the fresh and bright middleweight flavors that possess a velvet textured mid-palate that contrasts somewhat with youthfully austere finish that displays excellent depth and persistence for its level. This is unusually good for its level and worth considering, plus it should repay up to a decade of keeping. [Produced from several lieux-dits including <20% from the 1er Les Chaumes]."
