Very dark blackish rubi robe, nose of cassis, asian spices, blackcurrant and cedar, with a hint of flowers. Too hot a vintage and not to our taste, but the wine is light on its feet, fresh and quite elegant for the concentration. This is top notch and highly recommended. — 7 days ago

Deep ruby red. Plum, raspberry and blueberry. Spices. Balanced one. More concentrated than the previous vintage.

The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru, en magnum, has a clean and precise bouquet, tightly-wound at first, perhaps lean to those accustomed to more fruit driven Burgundy of late. Yet there is real tension here. The palate is medium-bodied and pliant on the entry with pointed acidity. There's a slight tapering towards the finish that you don't usually find with this climat. It is actually meliorated in the glass, so don't be afraid to decant. Tasted at Stannery Wines' producer tasting in London. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

No specific notes but a very elegant, spicy and floral burg done by one of the finest we know. Really good bottle and recommended. Might be a notch or two better with another 5 to 6 years of cellar time. — 2 months ago

Wild and smoky, presenting deep ruby in the glass. Palate is stylish and peppery with alcohol in check. Possibly whole cluster? Violets and coffee grounds come around with air. Guessed Faury St. Joseph 2015 blind, a’thank you! — 3 months ago

Gorgeous summer peach aroma, great weight and texture, very full on the palate. Perfect with our Smoked Soft-shell Crab. — a month ago

I thought this was the most complete and elegant of the trio of ‘12 Cornas we opened. Dark fruited, sinewy, meaty and herbal, floral and spicy notes add interest to a long and dramatic finish. Plenty of life ahead — 2 months ago
