The 2017 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Reignots is second only to La Romanée in the Liger-Belair cellar this year, wafting from the glass with a striking bouquet of wild rose, spices, French roast, dark chocolate, smoked duck and ineffable savory nuances that has already integrated its new wood to a much greater degree than any of the wines that preceded it. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and multidimensional, with a satiny-textured attack, a juicy and gourmand core of fruit, supple tannins and a long, fragrant and beautifully delineated finish.
