Vosne Romanee Champs Perdrix Perrot-Minot 2016 (750ML)

90-92 Points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous: "(Vosne-Romanée was Perrot-Minot's only commune that was "almost totally spared by frost" in 2016; the yield here was about 40 hectoliters per hectare): Dark red with ruby tones. More brooding and dark on the nose than the village Chambolle, offering aromas of cherry, black raspberry and bitter chocolate. Dense, ripe and silky-smooth in the mouth, but still with excellent acidity and floral, spicy lift to its black fruit flavors. Strong calcaire energy kicks in on the back end, giving the persistent finish an element of medicinal reserve and a rocky, saline complexity." 01/18

94 Points, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator: "Very pure, displaying rose, cherry, raspberry and incense aromas and flavors. Firm, lean and intense, building to a long, kaleidoscopic finish. Well-balanced, this should develop nicely over time. Best from 2022 through 2038. 10 cases imported." 05/19
