The 1991 Vosne-Romanee-Les Brulees, from some of Meo's oldest vines, exhibits a superb, saturated, deep purple color, a fragrant, stunningly gorgeous nose of black fruits, smoked meats, herbs, and toasty new oak. Deep, with a voluptuous texture, this full-bodied wine possesses soft tannin, stunning richness, a high glycerin level, and sweet tannins in the finish. Drink this lusty, full-throttle red burgundy over the next decade. This firm does a spectacular job with its two premier crus from Vosne-Romanee. While the Vosne-Romanee-Les Brulees (yields of only 15-20 hectoliters per hectare) and the Vosne-Romanee-Cros Parantoux (a Richebourg look-alike) may be premier crus in name and price, they are grand crus in quality. Both are must purchases in 1991 if you are a burgundy fanatic.
Silky and flavorful; an earthy edge to the pretty blackberry and cherry flavors and shades of chocolate and cedar add extra dimensions. An elegant wine, with impressive length.
