The Vosne-Romanee Les Suchots, from one of the great Premier Cru vineyards of Vosne-Romanee, should have been better. It has plenty of tannin and good acidity, but it lacks the depth and concentration of the top 1987s. Alain Hudelot is a serious winemaker, but he falls victim to the practice of filtering his wines too vigorously at the time of bottling. He has made very good 1987s, but one suspects these scores would be from 2 to 5 points higher had there not been such a traumatic filtration.
