The 2015 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Aux Brulees, which comes from Premaux's limestone-based, south-facing soils, was showing just a touch of reduction on the nose, although underneath lies attractive raspberry, black cherry and wild hedgerow aromas, neat and tidy with fine definition. The palate is medium-bodied with dark berry fruit, structured and a touch broody at first, albeit with the depth and body one expects from this vineyard. There are hints of brown spice towards the finish as its gently fans out, though I would just more lightness, more red fruit character to develop and beckon me back to my glass.
Quite an exciting cordite nose, a little whiff of fireworks. Quite lifted and light and racy. True Vosne character. Racy and refreshing. This tastes as though it were lifted by natural fruity acidity. A little grip on the end.?
