Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-98)
(5-Star) Deep purple with an even darker centre. The bouquet is sublime, not just the classic glossy depth of fruit, there is beautifully nuanced detail, and exquisite length, a truly harmonious wine which will make a great bottle. They now pick the Malconsorts later and punch down less than when they first got the vineyard. Drink from 2027-2036.Inc. VAT£2,771.58 -

The Malconsorts is still in barrel for a later bottling. Bright dense purple, this wine has a huge energy on the nose. Intense blossoming, fabulous in all regards even with a few peaches in the dark red fruit mix. Magical aftertaste. Doing its Malconsorts thing to a high degree. Tasted: December 2021Inc.

The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts 1er Cru has a little more fruit intensity on the nose; it is slightly darker by direct comparison. Fine delineation, quite bold in the context of the vintage. The palate is very intense, fine acidity, very sensual with just a hint of dark chocolate and black truffle shavings on the finish. Wonderful.Inc. VAT£771.46 -

Now in bottle, the 2022 Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts 1er Cru has a gorgeous bouquet with ebullient red cherry, wild strawberry and crushed stone scents. Hints of wilted rose petals emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine balance and filigree tannins. It's very harmonious with a bravura finish. What a superb Malconsorts this will be.Inc. VAT£1,978.00 -

Medium red. Pungent red fruits and flowers along with a suggestion of crystallized fruits on the nose. Dense, silky and suave on entry, then a bit inexpressive in the middle owing to strong sappy minerality. Chewy, pure wine with noble tannins and outstanding persistence. Very much in an upper-slope style and built for extended aging.Inc. VAT£856.09 -

The 2012 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts is fascinating to taste next to the Malconsorts. Precision and vibrancy are the signatures in a wine that pulses with energy from the very first taste. Readers who enjoy precise, finely sculpted Burgundies will find much to admire here. Today, the 2012 is a bit reticent and closed in on itself, but that should not pose any issues whatsoever over the long term. The vibrant, nuanced finish is a thing of beauty.Inc. VAT£1,444.00 -

The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins.

A bit wilder than the Echezeaux, but the tannins are silkier. Finishes with fine tannins and lingering dark fruit flavors.Inc. VAT£37,479.85 -

There was one more Burgundy on our agenda, a 2003 Rouget Vosne Romanee Cros Parantoux. The Rouget had a deep, saucy, concentrated nose, again this grilled endive thing around a core of plum, cassis, soda and liqueur. It was a thick wine, and the second tasty 2003 Burg that I had had on this trip. It was really good, hedonistic and rich, long and concentrated, sweet and hearty, if anything a touch too sweet, but hey, that's 2003 (93).Inc. VAT£43,822.75 -

(12x75cl) 2006Wine Advocate (95-96)
Rouget alludes to the aromas of his 2006 Vosne-Romanee Cros Parantoux as tres particulaire, and you can say that again! Cassis, black raspberry, licorice, musk, toasted pistachio, ginger, and white pepper amaze the nose, followed by an implosive palate concentration that incorporates stony, chalky, and somehow ore-like mineral essences. The sense of sappy cling and invigorating, vibratory impingement of spice and mineral matter here left both my salivary and adrenal glands pumping. This fissionable vinous material should be cellared for at least half a dozen years and then vigilantly followed for at least a further decade.Inc. VAT£45,722.47 -
(1x75cl) 2008Jancis Robinson (18)
This mythical wine still had about 10% of the malolactic fermentation to be completed. It was notably deeper than the Échezeaux with a lovely silky texture. Obviously great class of fruit – real density yet a certain irresistible flirtatiousness. Bitter cherry flavours that tightened on the finish. There are tannins here but acidity is the dominant feature and Rouget expects this vintage to mature relatively early. Madame Rouget, who stood in as host while her husband took a telephone call, told me that Henry Jayer deliberately did not seek Grand Cru status for this vineyard, however warranted it might be, to save his nephew Emmanuel and family death duties.Inc.

(1x150cl) 2012Wine Advocate (96-98)
There are four barrels of the 2012 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Cros Parantoux, the famous premier cru shared with Meo-Camuzet. It has a deeper and a relatively broody bouquet when compared to the Echezeaux, and here it refuses to open up. But one can detect real mineralite, a roiling intensity below. The palate is very harmonious, with a cashmere opening. The acidity is nicely judged and cuts through the swathe of rounded, corpulent red fruit. The finish is longer than the Echezeaux, with a spicy note loitering at the tip of the tongue.Inc. VAT£6,717.74 -
(1x75cl) 2014Wine Advocate (95-97)
The 2014 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Cros Parantoux, of which there are seven barrels this year, has a beautifully defined bouquet, very pure and precise with wild strawberry, limestone, rose petal and a touch of blood orange. You miss a heartbeat just nosing this wine. The palate is precise, refined and very pure, a silver bead of acidity, so much energy on the finish as it fans out in graceful fashion. There is incredible persistence here, a brilliant Cros Parantoux with which Uncle Henri would have been proud.Inc. VAT£2,529.72 -
Wine Advocate (93-96)
Tasted from several barrels, the 2017 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Cros Parantoux was showing very well, unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet berries, dark spices, grilled meats, rich soil and rose petal. On the palate, it's full-bodied, multidimensional and concentrated with a sappy core of fruit and the vertical line that routinely marks the wines from this comparatively cool site, concluding with a long and precise finish. It's a brilliant wine.Inc. VAT£2,685.86 -

(5-Star Wine) A great vintage for these cooler sites. What an explosion of fruit! A dense full but not exaggerated purple, then the wine goes back into its shell a little, but with gorgeous harmony, a match for his neighbour’s wine. How to explain all the fruits? More on the darker side but intense pinpricks of red notes too and a most harmonious, indeed blissful, finish.Inc. VAT£4,199.32 -

100% new wood. Intense purple without the black. The nose is all in the fruit, not quite so intense. The wood adds a gloss without detracting, this is all about the fruit which has a mind boggling intensity and can carry the degree easily, stretches out much further behind. Better acidity too. This is very complete and absolutely marvellous. It has unquestionably held on to its balance. Thanks to what Emmanuel Rouget calls a salivating acidity.Inc. VAT£2,301.86

In a region with some of the world’s most expensive and sought after Pinot Noir, the appellation of Vosne-Romanee is at the very top of this list, consistently outshining even its most impressive neighbours. Much has been waxed poetic about these wines, which are praised for their intensity, power, finesse, richness, and overall elegance. There are eight Grand Cru vineyards here including Richebourg, Romanee-Saint-Vivant, Echezeaux, Grands Echezeaux, as well as the monopoles La Grande Rue (Domaine Lamarche), La Romanee (Comte Liger-Belair), and Romanee-Conti and La Tache (both monopoles of Domaine de la Romanee-Conti.)
