Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir 2012

The last bottle of my 2012 Vosne Romanée from Alain Hudelot Noëllat and its a wonderful show that it manage to put up. Like a grand dame in its golden years bit with a hell of a spirit its displaying evolving characters of dried strawberries, rose petals, blood orange and menthol that is backed up by a prominent choir of nutmeg, clove, truffles, wet stones and forrest floor. Fresh palate with very present but smooth tannins, an expansive palate as the encore slowly fades out in a very respectful and balanced finish.
Day 2 tasting and its pumped up, more nuanced, defined and dresses up to its teeth in elegance. The last bottle of six will leave its mark for sure. Divine!

Family vacation night one in Wildwood.

BlackBerry, licorice, a bit of smoke, and slate. Very good. Drinking well now with a short decant but has many more years left.

Dark berries, violets, forest floor and pepper leap from the glass. Blackberry bramble, leather, plum and roasted meat fills out the palate. The 2013 is still pretty tight - I'd say should really come into its prime in 2019-2020. — 9 years ago

Honeyed peach, canned pineapple,
orchard blossoms, candied floral notes. Not at all super oxidized like a lot of southern Rhône wines can fall victim to.
