2014 Vosne Romanee Aux Reas

The 2014 Vosne-Romanée Aux Réas, under the A & Arlaud négoçiant label, has a punchy, quite high-toned iodine-tinged bouquet with abundant red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, crisp acidity, plenty of dark berry fruit but like the Village Cru, just pulls up on the finish and leaves you with a little dryness. Tasted at Flint Wines’ Arlaud retrospective.
