   “The wine seemed too tannic at the beginning, but now the tannins are more enrobed.”

   “This starts with the village Vosne-Romanée, which incorporates such climates as Bossières, just below the village, and the well-known Clos de Réas; the wine forms a perfect Vosne snapshot of silken fruit, truffle, forest, and enrobed tannins.”
