The 2005 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Gaudichots has a sweet ripe raspberry bouquet with touches of cumin and iris, although it is a little too high-toned for my own liking and seems blowsy compared directly against Prieure-Roch’s Clos Goillotte ’05. The palate is slightly chewy on the entry. This is a bold and quite firm 2005, backward, but missing some finesse towards the spicy finish. I was hoping for more given the vintage. Drink 2016-2026.
