"Vosne spice and very fresh red pinot and currant aromas lead to racy, intense and precise flavors that possess solid definition on the linear, delicious and vibrant finish. Excellent quality for its level and recommended though note that this has already started to shut down so if you're going to try one young just to see, be sure to give it plenty of air first."

The 2005 Vosne-Romanee Les Colombiere – from 70- to 80-year-old vines in a relatively moisture-retentive site below the Chateau – is possessed of ravishing aromas of strawberry, red currant, black tea, exotic spices, vanilla and wood smoke, offers a striking contrast of creamy texture and bright, tart, red berry and rhubarb fruit on the palate, and finishes with brightness, delicacy and refinement. After so many deep, dark wines of 2005, here is one that is all brightness and light (and indeed quite light in color as well, possibly in part on account of recent sulfuring).
