Both Vosne-Romanee premier crus are top notch. The 1991 Vosne-Romanee-Les Suchots exhibits a deep ruby color, and a more fragrant nose of black fruits, herbs, and sweet oak. More opulent, richer, and fuller-bodied than Les Beaumonts, this is a beautiful wine for drinking over the next 7-8 years.
Hudelot's 1991s are the finest wines I have tasted from this estate. Low yields, along with Hudelot junking his mobile bottler, who often stripped the wines by excessive filtration, have worked wonders regarding the final product. All of these offerings taste like fat, voluptuous, opulent 1990s. Gobs of sweet ripe fruit can be found in every wine, as they make for luscious, decadent mouthfuls of red burgundy. All the wines are recommended, but several possess more complexity and aromatic dimension. Importer: Wine Markets International, Woodbury, NY.
