2018 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Felettig, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2018 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, Felettig

The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru delivers an expressive and high-toned bouquet of rose petals, wild berries, herbs and cinnamon. Medium to full-bodied, it's ample but introverted, and Felettig expressed reservations regarding the wood he used for this cuvée. - William Kelley, Feb. 2020

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2018 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, Felettig

An overtly spicy nose combines copious floral influences with those of red and dark pinot fruit plus a touch of Asian-style tea. There is fine intensity to the slightly less refined if more mineral-inflected flavors that display a hint of dryness that's just enough to compromise the length somewhat. To be sure, this is still quite good though the balance isn't perfect. - Allen Meadows, Jan. 2020

Vinous - 2018 Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, Felettig

The 2018 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru comes two-thirds from Petits-Monts and one-third Les Chaumes and includes 30% whole bunch, matured in two 450-liter barrels. The powerful bouquet is quite floral in style, and Chinese five-spice and blood orange infuse the dense red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth-textured, creamy opening. Touches of vanilla and cassis dovetail into black currant and black pepper toward the grippy finish. This should be afforded several years in bottle, but it shows good potential. - Neal Martin, Jan. 2020
