this is a notably powerful wine and while it’s bigger and weightier than the Amoureuses

if the 2012 is concentrated and tightly wound

Berthaut-Gerbet, Vosne Romanee other_regions_italy this is a notably powerful(from Aux Ras and Au Dessus de la Rivire). Discreet but still perceptible wood sets off much spicier aromas of poached plum and black raspberry coulis that are trimmed in exotic tea hints. There is a finer but not denser texture to the medium weight flavors that exude a more subtle minerality on the youthfully austere, firm and lingering finish. This should reward up to a decade of cellaring.
