2017 Vosne Romanee La Croix Rameaux

Full bottle 1,340 g. From 0.202 hectares of 40-year-old vines grown on Bajocian limestone in the north-east corner of Romanée-St-Vivant. Transparent garnet. Very pretty, lively, blackcurrant and cranberry nose with admirable freshness. (I am tasting this in high temperatures so have chilled the bottle.) Light but definitely present tannins. I'd say this wine is only just ready to drink and will develop still more complexity. Admirably vivacity in this wine and a neat, confident finish. Only medium body but really very impressive finish. I think you can taste the superiority of the site. (JR)
