Joseph Drouhin Vosne Romanee 2016

The 2016 Vosne-Romanée Village has more dark berry fruit on the nose than I was expecting and just needed a little more floral aromas to pin it down as a Vosne-Romanée. The palate is well balanced with supple tannin, a mixture of blue and black fruit with just a tang of soy on the aftertaste.

Like the Gevrey-Chambertin, this is a very commendable village cru that should drink well for a decade but will drink earlier than others.
