From Veronique Drouhin-Boss’s personal acreage, the 2008 Vosne-Romanee Les Petits Monts – of which there are but three barrels – smells alluringly of cassis, dark cherry and citrus oils along with white pepper, soy, and ginger. Sweetly ripe and pungently spicy, it turns impressively dark and brooding as it moves toward its finish, with peat, chalk, and forest floor elements, its abundant tannins fine-grained and well-shrouded. Cinnamon and clove add to the persistence of ginger in a succulent, at once vivacious and transparent yet (metaphorically) darkly-hued finish.
