(a .24 ha parcel of 11 year old young vines planted in a mix of rock and sand). An evocative mix of red, blue and violet notes trimmed with a deft touch of spice, particularly anise that continues onto the round, velvety, sweet and sappy flavors that are very Vosne, indeed utterly delicious without being common, all wrapped in a precise and punchy finish. This is not overly concentrated but the harmony of expression is impressive and I very much like the complex floral quality of the finale. (89-92)/2012+
