The Vosne-Romanee 1985 from Robert Arnoux is fully mature but still in fine form. The nose is very expressive with sous-bois, red berry fruit with orange hints and Vosne spices. On the palate still very good fruit, quite intense and weighty for this level. Slightly high on the volatile acidity … but the acidity seem to integrate better after some time in the glass. A lovely glass of mature Vosne … flawless aside from the slightly volatile note … really enjoyed this wine.
