Drouhin/Joseph Vosne-Romanée 2017

93 points Wine Enthusiast: “[$105 list] An initial whiff of reduction dissipates to display tart red cherry on this wine’s subtle nose. The palate comes in with crunch, showing edges of iron oxide and pepper made vivid by brightness and freshness. Underneath it all is a firm, fine texture. A graceful and lasting framework of tannin lets the freshness and fruit shine in all their elegance. Alcohol 13%. (Dec 2020)”

92 points James Suckling: “Gorgeous aromas of dried roses and dark berries with strawberries and spice. Medium to full body, round and juicy tannins and a flavorful finish. Drink or hold. (2/12/19)”
