Vosne Romanee 1er Cru Les Malconsorts
Learn More About This Wine
This is an exceptional Premier Cru from Vosne-Romanée. The winery owns 4.75 acres of vines in this Climat located immediately adjacent to some mythical plots. As the crow flies, Romanée-Conti is less than four hundred metres away and Richbourg less than six hundred.
The Climat’s name is thought to refer to legal disputes between litigants who did not exhibit fair behaviour – hence the ‘mal’ – to gain ownership of this magical piece of land that they held as common property. Lying adjacent to “La Tâche,” “Les Malconsorts” is located in an area that is known to receive a particularly high amount of sunshine.
Its fine, complex nose features notes of red and black fruit (cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant) combined with delicate nuances of oak and subtle hints of spices. Smooth full-bodied texture, elegant tannins, and exceptional length.
