Produced from 50 year old vines, the dark-ruby-colored Vosne-Romanee Les Beaux Monts reveals elegant, refined and intense aromatics of deep black cherries and a magnificently velvety-textured, full-bodied cassis and white pepper-laden, oak imbued flavor profile. The abundant oak was not integrated when I tasted this wine (hence the question mark) but Laurent assures me that it will "precipitate out." Anticipated maturity: 2002-2012. This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. The wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. Pinot Noir, a fragile varietal, reacts poorly to fining, filtration, and careless bottling techniques, I recommend caution when considering buying a red burgundy based on cask samples. I called it as I tasted it, and hope the bottled wine reflects the quality of the samples I was provided.A Patrick Lesec Selection (Paris Fax # 011-33-1-42-84-38-22), various American importers.
