Gros Frere et Soeur, Vosne Romanee 1er Cru other_regions_italy spice and earth introduce equally(this is declassified Echzeaux from vines located in Lochausses). A very ripe nose of red currant, plum, cassis and Vosne style spice is couched in mild oak influence that can also be found on the very rich, round and suave medium bodied flavors that are delicious and easy to like and culminate in a tangy and sappy finish. There is more here compared to the villages but its not quite as well balanced. 89 2014+
