2024, Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, VOSNE-ROMANÉE, 1er Cru, 'Les Suchots'From the well known Vosne Romane vineyard sitting on the north eastern side of (and just above) Grand cru Romane St Vivant. Often thought of as a "mini Richebourg!" A great source of top notch Suchots.

just nuanced and beautiful

Pithy minerality

93 Joe Czerwinski

magical - giving the concentration of the hot vintage which is want you want

the palate is taut and racy

tightly in control

An autumnal wine

This has a tautness and an intensity to it

and this vintage represents a new chapter

some architecture here too

and classic Pauillac claret

A triumph over the adverse conditions of the vintage
