Clean finish but not that persistent

Compared to other wines from 2010 that are initially shy and hesitant

(from vines planted in 1902)

Mild wood influence sets off a highly complex nose comprised of fresh red currant and blue pinot fruit aromas that are liberally laced with warm earth and a sauvage hint that carries over to the relatively refined and supple yet entirely serious

there is no vanilla

Berthaut-Gerbet, Vosne Romanee other_regions_italy Clean finish but not that(from Aux Ras and Au Dessus de la Rivire). Discreet but still perceptible wood sets off much spicier aromas of poached plum and black raspberry coulis that are trimmed in exotic tea hints. There is a finer but not denser texture to the medium weight flavors that exude a more subtle minerality on the youthfully austere, firm and lingering finish. This should reward up to a decade of cellaring.
