Emmanuel Rouget Vosne Romanee Cros Parantoux 2003 (Capsule Damage)

A more deeply pitched nose combines notes of dark currant

Pale gold in colour

Like several wines in the range there is an intense floral character to the highly restrained nose that combines notes of red cherry

An exuberantly spicy nose features additional aromas of black cherry

There is a highly seductive mouth feel to the velvet-textured

The Méo style of emphasizing a blend of power and finesse works extremely well in a vintage like 1990 and this is wonderfully expressive with its seductive blend of secondary fruit

Distinct soil and mineral inflections give the Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Lavières much of its distinctive personality

An exuberantly expressive nose jumps from the glass to reveal a lovely array of earth

This superb wine does a slow build from the mid-palate on back to the massively deep finale

jammy aromas intermingled with scents of minerals and licorice

firm and lingering finish
