The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru is showing some reduction on the nose, slightly smudged red fruit, leather and undergrowth. It does seem to gain clarity with modest aeration though. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, taut and crisp, quite linear with fine sapidity on the structure, backward finish. A Premier Cru with a long future ahead. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. (Drink between 2025-2048)
A bright crimson colour. Lactic new oak on the nose. Then quite a ripe fruit, between raspberry and blackberry. Underneath there really is a significant density and good acidity, making a complex whole which is taking time. The oak remains slightly too dominant. Drink from 2033.
