The 1992 Vosne-Romanee-Les Brulees offers a smoky, roasted nose of herbs, black fruits, and toasty new oak. Sweet, round, and creamy-textured, with wonderfully ripe fruit, and a seductive, silky finish, it should be drunk over the next 5-6 years. Meo-Camuzet held its 1992 yields to a conservative 25-30 hectoliters per hectare, resulting in generally sound wines that have been bottled without filtration. Importer: Martine's Wines, San Rafael, CA; tel. (415) 485-1800.

With more density and color than most '92s, this is almost exuberantly fruity and generous, showing bright currant, berry and spicy oak aromas and flavors. Drinkable now.
