Arnoux Lachaux Vosne Romanee Les Suchots 2012

Moderate but not really invasive wood serves as a backdrop for the mix of various dark berry fruit elements where additional breadth is present in the form of earth

The color is an opaque purple

As pretty as this is on the nose and mid-palate

spice and pure red and dark berries

There is once again an appealing sense of energy to the lighter weight flavors that deliver solid punch and persistence on the balanced finish

sappy and punchy finish

This is not a big wine in the context of a Gevrey grand cru but it's balanced and classically styled

yet retains its sense of balance and symmetry

The delicious and round yet nice detailed and vibrant flavors possess a dusty yet refined mouth feel before terminating in a lingering

soft spice and game hints

An exuberantly expressive nose jumps from the glass to reveal a lovely array of earth

moving toward blacker berries
