Vosne-Romanée 1964

Gros Frère et Sœur's Vosne-Romanée from 1964, now that's the essence of Burgundy for you. It's 100% Pinot Noir, a hallmark of Burgundy's top-rated wines. This vintage reflects a bountiful year, and once you pop it open, you’re stepping into a remarkable experience.

In volume 14, this wine is portrayed as having an everlasting finesse, like the scent of red roses magically rising from the depths. It really brings back the emotion from when it was featured.

When you pour it into your glass, you’ll notice a brick color with an orange tint around the edges, showing its age with grace. The aroma is a complex mix of dried herbs and tea notes, with ripe red fruits lingering beneath. You get a sense of time almost standing still when you take it in.

On the palate, it starts with a smooth sweetness, followed by a lively acidity that tingles your taste buds. The tannins are velvety, almost melting into the wine. After you swallow, the finish is long, with an elegant and complex taste that lingers. You might want to enjoy this one in a slightly larger glass, just to let it breathe and unfold.
