Vosne Romanee Aux Reas AF Gros 2017 (750ML)

89-91 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Aux Réas has a slightly purer and more sophisticated bouquet than the Les Chalandins, the 40% new oak neatly assimilated here. The palate is well balanced with smooth tannin, blood orange and a tang of marmalade infusing the red fruit. The plush, quite forward finish feels very generous." 10/18

89-91 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "Moderate wood still allows the spiced plum, raspberry and hoisin aromas to shine. The gorgeously textured medium-bodied flavors possess a supple and seductive mid-palate while delivering very good length on the sappy and more complex finish that also flashes a touch of youthful austerity." 04/19
