The Lamarche Grande Rue 2015 is a refined and feminine Grand Cru. The nose is brimming with juicy red and dark fruits – blueberries, red-currant, pomegranate – spiced with violets and peony rose. On the palate juicy and intense – with a sensual and velvet character – and a filigree and detailed fruit and mineral impression. Not a blockbuster grand cru – but instead a refined delicate expression of Vosne .. with an airy female touch – lovely lightfooted intensity.
