2014 Vosne Romanee La Croix Rameaux

From a 40 year-old plot at the bottom of Grand Cru Romanée-St-Vivant practically next to the new offices of DRC. Dr Lavalle classified it as part of RSV. Pale to mid cherry red. Light glacé cherry fruit on the nose and admirable freshness on the palate. Still quite firm but it has all the ingredients necessary for future pleasure. Far from intense but very nicely constituted. Just a little savoury tannin on the end. (JR)
