2009 Jacques Cacheux Vosne Romanee La Croix Rameau

(95 points) “An absolutely superb wine, the 1er Cru La Croix Rameau offers rich earthy red and plum fruit and light herbal flavors. It is elegant and flavorful on the palate revealing ripe well-focused fruit with good acidity and balance. Aged for 18 months in 100% new oak, it has perfectly ripe tannins and is long lasting on the palate. Still young and evolving, this beauty needs a good part of decade to reveals all of its many dimensions. A wine deserving of Grand Cru status.†International Wine Review
