Noëllat/Georges Vosne-Romanée 2018

93 points Tim Atkin, MW (Decanter): "Talented young winemaker Maxime Cheurlin uses fruit from four different parcels to produce this commendable village cuvée, which uses fruit from Aux Champs Perdrix as its core. Scented, succulent and bright, with deftly handled 40% new wood, it's a textbook modern Vosne with impressive texture and concentration, floral top notes and fine-boned tannins.

Drinking Window: 2021-2028. (Oct 2019)"

91-93 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Champs Perdrix for half, then Jacquines, Hautes-Maizières and Vigneux. Rich full purple. It is a bit reductive at the moment, not having been racked after a late malolactic fermentation. But no matter because the wine on the palate is pure and racy, with a lifted stylish finish, darker fruit, a little touch of liquorice but it is fruit that wins the race to the back. This may rate even higher later on. (Nov 2019)"

90-92 points Steen Öhman (Winehog): "Back to Vosne-Romanée, the Vosne-Romanee 2018 is an intense and vivid village, and quite a hedonistic treasure. On the bouquet, fine red fruit – raspberries, varieties of cherries and some fresh elements of redcurrant – with plenty of Vosne spices. On the palate, fine, delicate fruit that is weighty and precise with very good energy. I love the seductive, velvety character of these wines. Fine+. (10/1/19)"

89-92 points/'Outstanding/Top value,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a mix of Les Jacquines, Champs Perdrix, Hautes-Maizières and Les Vigneux). There is just enough reduction present to push the underlying fruit to the background but not so much as to mask the pretty spice wisps. There is an equally seductive mouthfeel to the velvet-textured flavors that possess even better depth on the firm, palate coating and impressively persistent finish. This is an excellent Vosne villages that is worth your interest. Drink: 2028+. (Jan 2020)"
