Product Description
AG94 "The 2011 Vosne-Romanée Aux Malconsorts is mid-weight, gracious and absolutey impeccable in its balance. Sweet tobacco, mint, red stone fruits, dried cherries and orange peel are some of the notes that inform the Malconsorts. Pliant and expressive on the palate, with highly expressive floral overtones, the Malconsorts is a gorgeous wine in 2011 and just as impressive at it was from barrel." AG for VM Mar 2014
BH94 "An intensely spicy nose features notes of ripe black pinot fruit and plenty of floral influence in the form of violet and lavender scents. As would be expected this possesses plenty of size and weight with excellent mid-palate concentration, all wrapped in a powerful, palate coating and wonderfully long finish. This is a serious wine that will need at least 10 to 12 years to be approachable." AM for BH Jan 2014
Producer note: Jeremy Seysses describes the 2012 vintage as "one that was marked by a poor flowering, which as it turned out was both good news and bad news. A poor flowering is generally considered to be bad news but in a growing season such as the one we endured in 2012, there were three attributes that contributed in some ways that probably saved the harvest. The first is that the tiny quantities allowed the vines to ripen the fruit despite the basically lousy summer weather. The second is that the bunches were very loose. This is to say that there was generally a lot of space between berries and this allowed good air circulation which helped enormously to limit the spread of rot and disease. In a growing season where the mildew pressure was never ending this seemingly small detail was huge. The third aspect engendered by the poor flowering is perhaps not something that really can be considered as one that saves a crop but the high incidence of shot berries contributed materially to the richness and wonderful texture of the resulting wines that raises them above the ordinary.
