The 2003 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Gaudichots has a much deeper and more youthful color compared to the 2002. The nose is glossy and opulent with touches of shoe polish infusing the cassis and raspberry fruit, hints of spice developing with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins. There is good substance here with thick tannins around a sweet core of glossy fruit. I suspect it will benefit from another couple of year’s bottle age, something I would not have predicted before tasting it. This is a respectable Vosne-Romanee for the vintage. Drink 2015-2025+.
