1999 Domaine Bruno Clavelier Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru (5/5/2007)
I've read lots of notes about Vosne spice over the years, but here it is right in front of me. Spices, rich, almost grapey fruit, and also quite a lot of tannin. This has the fruit to hold for a long time, and the structure is there to see it through to old age. Quite an interesting wine, as there's clearly some vanilla oak, but it's very well managed and integrated. Very nice. I bought a bunch on close-out and will enjoy following it over many years.
