Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Vosne Romanée 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts from Domaine François Lamarche has a refined and detailed bouquet: fresh strawberry, cranberry leaf and minerals, all very attractive. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, just a dab of oak to be fully subsumed, but with plenty of weight and volume on the pretty, quite spicy finish. It's just a delicious, well-crafted Vosne-Romanée and one of the best from the domaine in 2012.Inc. TAX€1,584.72 -

The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet of dark berry fruit, oyster shell, sous-bois and rose petals, intense and fragrant. The harmonious palate is silky-smooth on the entry with finely judged acidity. A subtle touch of spice develops nicely toward the finish, which leaves a persistent, peppery aftertaste.

The 2021 will be the final Vosne-Romanée Les Malconsorts 1er Cru from Lamarche after the division of the Domaine. Now, this has more punch on the nose compared to the Suchots and Chaumes that precede it. A light tertiary note percolates through the red fruit. The palate is harmonious on the entry with well judged acidity, very pure and ethereal in style, a hint of spice with more persistence on the finish. A delicate but admirable wine.Inc. TAX€839.10 -

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Les Suchots 2011 is more reserved on the nose than their Chaumées, but there is a touch more complexity, the brambly red and black fruit infused with fine minerality and tension. The palate is smooth and rounded on the entry with a lot of extraction so that it feels plump around the middle. Juicy and pure, what it lacks in complexity is compensated by its saturated tannins and opulent blueberry-tinged finish that is just missing some persistence, cutting away before you have had an opportunity to show your gratitude.Inc.

The 2019 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru comes from a 0.58-hectare parcel of vines averaging 50 years old. The bouquet is similar to the Les Chaumes, featuring vibrant red cherries and touches of cassis, here a little more vivid in style, with good definition, though not the ravishing opulence you might find elsewhere. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins on the entry, fine acidity, gentle grip, very pure red fruit and a touch of crushed stone and black pepper toward the finish.

The 2004 Campoleone, the estate's signature wine, is simply gorgeous. This blend of equal parts Sangiovese and Merlot spent 12 months in French oak. It is a firmly structured wine with superb density on the palate, where layers of tobacco, dark cherries, earthiness, smoke, licorice and toasted oak all come to life. The tannins finish slightly dry and astringent, likely a result of an overly exuberant use of French oak. Still, this is a beautifully delineated, focused Campoleone.Inc. TAX€261.34 -

Good medium red. Highly complex, inviting aromas of black raspberry, mocha, licorice, black pepper, burning cinders and herbs. A lovely midweight wine whose considerable power is nicely countered by subtle sweetness and the herb and pepper nuances from the stems. The long finish features slightly peppery tongue-dusting tannins and a pungent note of licorice. But I prefer the '93 for its suavity and greater persistence. (13.2% alcohol; 3.51 pH; 3.5 g/l acidity; made from perfectly healthy grapes, according to Brouin, who vinified this wine with a sizable portion of whole clusters, as he did for the first time in 1985)Inc.

This deep-colored wine has a darker-scented nose than its sibling's, and reveals the same pepper and black fruit scents, yet does not have the herbal component. Very spicy, it is a thickly-textured, full-bodied, dense, and expansive wine redolent with a massive juniper berry, clove, cinnamon, meaty, wild game, brambleberry, mineral, stone, and cassis-liqueur-flavored core. This complex, tightly-wound, and firmly structured wine demands cellaring. Drink it between 2005 and 2015.Inc. TAX€749.69 -

Moderately saturated red. Wonderfully suave, mellow, inviting scents of raspberry, mocha, smoke and underbrush; the most resolved and integrated nose to this point of the tasting. A classic, harmonious Clos des Lambrays with impeccable balance and a wonderfully refined, silky texture to its flavors of red cherry, red berries, mocha and underbrush energized by high notes of pepper and spices. Not a powerhouse but this beauty fills the mouth while conveying a magically weightless impression. Finishes with sweet, perfectly supported tannins, a sexy floral quality and subtle building length. Two thousand one was a great vintage for Morey-Saint-Denis grand crus, noted Thierry Brouin, who told me he also loved the Clos de Tart. About as elegant as this wine gets. This vintage was the lowest in total acidity of my tasting but the wine hardly lacks for verve. And it has blossomed beautifully in the bottle. In fact, this is the highest score I've yet given for this vintage of Clos des Lambrays. (13.8% alcohol; 3.62 pH; 3.3 g/l acidity)Inc. TAX€894.48 -

Bright pale-medium red. Higher-pitched but more reticent on the nose than the 2012, showing a distinctly floral aspect as well as a redder fruit quality; more delicate and pristine. Wonderfully sexy and complex if somewhat youthfully tight in the mouth, conveying an ineffable silkiness of texture rather than the sheer plushness of the '12. Less dark in its fruit character as well, offering flavors of red raspberry, cherry, brown spices and underbrush. Wonderfully tactile and delineated; this really glistens on the palate and on the very long, refined aftertaste. Here the tannins are suaver than those of the 2012. More about finesse than power, but this wine will nonetheless need time to express itself more fully. An essence of terroir and a wine of great verve. (13.4% alcohol; 3.55 pH; 3.7 g/l acidity)Inc.
