Vosne Romanee Suchots Bouchard 2017 (750ML)

88-90 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2017 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru has quite an elegant bouquet, a mélange of red and black fruit combining with finely integrated new oak (25%). The palate is smooth on the entry and quite plush in style, with good depth, though it is missing some terroir expression on the finish." 10/18

90 Points, James Suckling, jamessuckling.com: "The nose has attractive rose and spicy red-cherry aromas, leading to a smoothly succulent palate that carries plenty of fruit flesh and depth. Great wine for early drinking. Try in the next six to eight years." 02/19

92 Points, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator: "This is spicy, with cinnamon, vanilla and toast elements shading the core of cherry flavors. Elegant, showing fine balance and a tangy, spice-infused aftertaste. Best from 2021 through 2035. 150 cases imported." 11/19
