The 2013 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru en Orveaux, raised in two-thirds new oak, has a succinct and complex bouquet with perhaps more mineralité than the Aux Reignots. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit. There is certainly good weight in the mouth here, plus a sense of symmetry toward the long, silky finish. This is a classy, sophisticated Vosne-Romanée that punches well above its weight - an outstanding success for Sebastien Cathiard.
