"The 2009 Vosne-Romanee Les Gaudichots shows great intensity in its dark fruit. It is a rich, seductive wine layered with hints of sweet spices, mint and roses, all of which add complexity as well as freshness. A vein of minerality gives the wine its verve. The Gaudichots is too steep for tractors, so Forey works this parcel with a horse. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027."
