2023, Domaine Bruno Clavelier, VOSNE-ROMANÉE, 'Les Hauts de Beaux Monts'

An elegant, distinctly cool and quite airy nose is derived exclusively from the red side of the fruit spectrum along with a host of spice nuances. The delicious and impressively intense, if not especially dense, flavours brim with minerality on the pure and youthfully austere finale. This could use better depth so a few years of keeping should help. 87-90 Burghound.

A beautifully pure ruby purple. Such energy to the nose as well. Beautiful purity of fresh red fruit, uncomplicated but with density, only one barrel after he had to pull out his 1987 vines. Well integrated acidity, silky tannins, lovely. Oolitic limestone soil. Drink from 2028 - 2032. Tasted Nov 2024. **** 90-92 Jasper Morris MW.
