This is also mildly reduced but it probably won't persist. By contrast there is even more intensity and refinement present on the more mineral-driven medium weight flavors that possess an attractive sense of underlying tension before terminating in a chalky, mouth coating and impeccably well-balanced finale. This is well worth considering.
The 2015 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru les Petits Monts is matured in two-thirds new oak (three barrels.) It has a beautiful, nuanced bouquet that effortlessly disguises the new oak, very delineated and pure with vivacious morello cherry, wild strawberry and candied orange peel aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth and harmonious entry, hints of orange sorbet/blood orange filtering through the red cherry and strawberry notes, merging into the more mineral-driven finish. I appreciate the transparency here, the frisson of energy. It should give 12-15 years of drinking pleasure, possibly more.
Pale crimson. Light savoury nose. Then exceptionally sweet on the palate. Real lift and freshness. Not tiring at all. Real race and transparency here. So neat and well balanced.
