Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Nov 18
The 2015 Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées 1er Cru has a backward, surly and unresponsive bouquet that, despite rigorous swirling, just refuses to give much. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, quite solid tannic structure. This is a Premier Cru with impressive backbone but contented to be charmless in its youth. I wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole right now. Worryingly, it does seem to deteriorate in the glass - hence my parsimonious score. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
