2015 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Malconsorts Hubert de Montille, Burgund (1,5l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2015 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Malconsorts, Hubert de Montille

The 2015 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru les Malconsorts, matured in 65% new oak, has a very pure bouquet with black cherry, red plum, pomegranate and wet limestone aromas that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with elegant tannin on the entry, finely judged acidity and a structured, quite grippy finish that suggests it will require several years in bottle. Great potential here. - Neil Martin, Dez. 2016

Vinous - 2015 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Aux Malconsorts, Hubert de Montille

(100% vendange entier; 60% new oak): Bright dark red. Knockout discreet nose combines raspberry, Oriental spices, rose petal and flinty minerality. Extremely intense in the mouth, with its youthfully imploded flavors of raspberry and saline minerality conveying outstanding definition and energy. The longest of these 2015s so far, finishing with noble building tannins and lovely red berry, spice and crushed-stone perfume. This wine struck me as higher-pitched and redder in its fruit character than the 2014 version at the same stage. Sieve noted that the estate's highest 18 rows of vines on hard limestone give this wine an edginess that's not found in the Christiane cuvée. - Stephen Tanzer, Jan. 2017
