Vinous Neal Martin - 22 Nov 22
The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet with dark berry fruit, Earl Grey and crushed stone, displaying impressive complexity for the vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins, quite bold with firm backbone, though I am missing the precision and Pinoté that might have warranted a higher score. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.

Cask sample. Deep crimson. Quite heady and rich without quite the lift and refreshment of the Brûlées. Obviously very ripe fruit with lots going on underneath. (JR)
