Domaine de Montille, Vosne-Romanee Aux Malconsort 2009

Montille makes two cuvees of Vosne Aux Malconsort – the cuvee Chistiane made from a plot just outside the original La Tache vineyard, and a more “ordinary” cuvee made from the other plots on Aux Malconsort. The word “ordinary” should however not be used about the Vosne Romanee Aux Malconsort 09 from Montille – it’s a beutiful and quite remarkable effort for the vintage. The nose is quite cool and refined with red and dark fruits with lovely Vosne spices and a nice asian touch of soy and anise. On the palate – very airy and cool for the vintage – with fine depth and concentration. It’s long, focused and quite transparent for a 09. A very resolved and harmonious effort … but first and foremost a true pleasure with it’s balance between elegance and power.
