Perrot-Minot Vosne-Romanee Aux Champs Perdrix Vieilles Vignes 2016

(Vosne-Romanée was Perrot-Minot's only commune that was almost totally spared by frost in 2016; the yield here was about 40 hectoliters per hectare): Dark red with ruby tones. More brooding and dark on the nose than the village Chambolle, offering aromas of cherry, black raspberry and bitter chocolate. Dense, ripe and silky-smooth in the mouth, but still with excellent acidity and floral, spicy lift to its black fruit flavors. Strong calcaire energy kicks in on the back end, giving the persistent finish an element of medicinal reserve and a rocky, saline complexity.
