Tasting notes
Good deep, bright red. Fruit-driven aromas of deep cherry and dark raspberry. Dry and brisk but with noteworthy thickness and sappiness; a note of blood orange gives the finish a slight bitter edge in the early going. Finishes very juicy, with fine-grained tannins. Should make a terrific village bottling.

The 2014 Vosne Romanée Champs Perdrix Vieilles Vignes has a perfumed nose with wilted rose petals littered across the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with a pleasing succulence on the entry; there is a touch of orange zest infusing the red cherries and strawberry, whilst the tannin impart a slight chalky texture and tension on the finish. This is worth checking out once in bottle, but give it 3-4 years.
Above La Romanée in a corner. A bit more intense than the other village wines but still very relaxed style. Very user-friendly. Tight, fine tannins on the finish. (JR)
