2007 Lucien Le Moine, Vosne-Romanee Premier Cru, Les Petits Monts 1x150cl

Vinous 89-92

Good medium red. Candied cherry, raspberry and musky minerals on the nose, plus a whiff of leesy reduction and some vanillin oak. Suave on entry, then inexpressive in the middle palate, with new oak and sexy truffley perfume currently masking the wine’s fruit. Best today on the rather delicate aftertaste, which features fine-grained tannins. [Stephen Tanzer, 03/01/2009]
