The 2013 Vosne-Romanee Maizières has a slightly deeper nose than the Clos de la Fontaine, the fruit a little darker with blackberry and dark plum scents, the 35% new wood perhaps not as subsumed at this early juncture. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, juicy ripe tannins and (again) well-judged acidity. Harmonious in the mouth, if not terribly complex, there is still an appreciable depth and persistence in the mouth here, and it will benefit from a couple of years in bottle and may merit a higher score in the future.
