The 2012 Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Aux Malconsorts has a sophisticated, mineral-driven bouquet with great clarity, less fruit and more restrained than the Beaux Monts but with greater focus. The palate is medium-bodied with a real candied, bonbon element, a core, a sweetness that lends this real personality and wonderful poise on the finish. Lovely. 94 to 96 Wine Advocate
