Tasting note: The Foreau 2006 Vosne-Romanee Les Petits Monts delivers a melange of red and black currant with bright, bitter-sweet and tart flavors that are complimented by a savory, saline suggestion of maritime minerality, soy, peat, and marrowy meatiness. Firm tannins preclude any outright sense of richness – let alone fat – at this stage in its evolution, but there is impressively sappy persistence here and a dynamic sense of interaction with mineral and carnal nuances. I would plan to revisit this in a couple of years, and anticipate at least 6-8 years of satisfaction. (92pts. DS, Wine Advocate)
Tasted: Dec. 2009
Score: 92
Drink: 2009-2017
Tasting note: A reserved mix of fresh and spicy floral and very ripe dark berry fruit aromas trimmed in a bit of toasty oak combines with nicely detailed and relatively round flavors that possess excellent intensity, detail and minerality on the moderately wood influenced finish. This doesn't quite have the sheer depth of the Les St. Georges but it is very Vosne as well as serious, complex and the amount of extract here is impressive all the same. Recommended. (91pts. Allen Meadows AKA The Burghound)
Tasted: Jan. 01, 2009
Score: 91
Drink: 2014+
Tasting note: Good full red. Red- and blackcurrant and violet on the nose. Suave but tightly wound, with firm peppery grip and considerable mineral energy to the dark berry flavors. The rather powerful finish features substantial tannins, a nice touch of sweetness and penetrating saline minerality that leaves the palate vibrating. Less closed than the Saint-Georges but this will still need at least five years of cellaring. (91(+?)pts. Steven Tanzer)
