The 2016 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts Vieilles Vignes has a deep and quite sensual bouquet: cranberry and crushed strawberry, undergrowth and orange pith aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, slightly chalky in texture and lending tension. This leans more toward red than black fruit, displaying fine salinité on the finish. This has very good potential.
