The 2017 Vosne-Romanée La Colombière is also quite strongly marked by its time in new wood, though the wine has more substance to integrate it, offering up an appealing bouquet of French roast, plums, wild berries, dark chocolate and an attractive touch of peony. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, satiny and more complete, with juicy acids and creditable depth at the core, concluding with a saline finish. It's an appreciable step above the regular Vosne-Romanée Village this year.
