Vosne-Romanee Les Rouges du Dessus Premier Cru•2021

Gentle in weight but not in character, the 2021 Jean-Luc & Eric Burguet Vosne-Romanée Les Rouges du Dessus 1er Cru shows lifted red cherry fruit laced with delicate spice and floral notes, all framed by a touch of oak. The palate is sleek and finely etched, with a stony backbone and firm tannins that bring a slightly austere, serious finish, suggesting this elegant, smaller-scaled vintage will reward patience more than early drinking.
