Domaine François Lamarche
2019 Vosne-Romanée "Les Chaumes" 1er Cru Red barrel
Score: 90-92
Drink: 2027+
Tasting note: Soft wood sets off ripe, pretty and elegant floral-suffused aromas of plum, dark raspberry and overt spice nuances. The succulent, round and delicious medium-bodied flavors possess a velvety mouthfeel along with good if not special mid-palate density, all wrapped in a sappy, balanced and persistent finish. This needs to develop more depth, but the stuffing appears to be present for that to occur.
