The 2013 Vosne Romanee les Rouges du Dessus 1er Cru, like the Village Cru, is initially bashful on the nose and demands coaxing. I would have liked a little more aromatic delineation to be honest but it will suffice. The palate is supple on the entry with fleshy red berry fruit mixed with allspice and white pepper, structured on the finish but needing to develop a little more finesse befitting a premier cru.
