A lightly wooded nose presents a fresh and cool array of both red and dark raspberry liqueur-like aromas along with hints of spice, exotic tea and floral wisps. There is fine delineation to the reasonably concentrated medium weight flavors that possess excellent power and length on the mildly austere and much more firmly structured finale. Very good quality here and worth checking out. - Drink:2029+ - BH90~93
Vosne Romanée premier cru Les Suchots wines are remarkable, and despite the presence of a thalberg, or valley bottom, in the vineyard, fairly homogeneous. They are close to Romanée-Saint-Vivant wines, robust, perfumed and very elegant. Their beautiful colour intensity, of a deep ruby or garnet, reminds one of a Petit-Musigny. Their complex aromas are characterised by scents of spices, ripe fruits, vanilla, caramel and liquorice. In the mouth, the fine delicate tannins make these wines linger long on the palate and confer a velvety mellowness, making this a wine of great distinction and elegance. - Winemaker's Notes
The village of Vosne Romanee entered in the Burgundy history in 636. It was at the beginning of the XVII century that is first noted the name "Mongeard" in the registry. For more than eight generations, the Mongeard family has been established in Vosne Romanee, right in the midst of the Cote de Nuits, producing wine with an utmost respect for tradition.
Since then and through all the generations, the family is committed to their passion: Vine and Wine. The Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, renamed since 1945, now operates a large vineyard in the purist of the burgundy tradition, My grand-father was Eugene Mongeard and my grand-mother Edmee Mugneret.
