Sylvain Cathiard & Fils Vosne-Romanee "Les Suchots" 1er Cru 2015

A brilliantly spicy nose is comprised of notes of violet, plum, lavender, soy, Asian-style tea and black cherry. There is more volume and richness if less precision and delineation to the velvety and seductive-textured medium-weight plus flavours that coat the palate on the beautifully well-balanced, persistent and equally classy finish that is quite firmly structured. The sheer level of dry extract buffering the ripe and dense tannins is impressive and as such this terrific effort should age effortlessly.
