Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Les Chaumes, Arnoux Lachaux

Note:

(50% vendange entier; 50% new oak): Full medium red. Very sexy aromas of red raspberry, pomegranate, mocha, smoke and earth. A suave, energetic midweight that shows the tension of the vintage, with red and darker berry and mineral flavours accented by subtle peppery spices. Finishes with firm tannins that avoid dryness. This sinewy, upright wine shows excellent drive for the year but little in the way of early sweetness. Lay it down.
