Tasting Notes

90-92
Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 09 Jan 20
Aromas of raspberries, spices, smoked duck and espresso roast, framed by a deft application of new wood, introduce the Mugnerets' 2018 Vosne-Romanée Village, a medium to full-bodied, lively and nicely concentrated wine with fine tannins, a ripe core of fruit and a nicely defined, energetic finish. Since La Colombière was bottled separately this year, the 2018 represents a blend of lieux-dits Les Chalendins, Le Pré de la Folie, Les Champs Gourdin and Les Croix Blanches.

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Dec 20
The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Village has an open, expressive bouquet of brambly red fruit and hints of autumnal leaves, gentle and delicate considering the vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, quite strict at the moment and maybe just a little tight after bottling. Good tension on the finish, but it clearly needs a couple of years in bottle.

Cask sample. Mid crimson. Light but convincing nose. Very tight and youthful with evident acidity. You would never guess this was from a heatwave vintage. Set for the long term. And with the usual refinement. (JR)
