Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru, Les Brûlées--Vintage 1978
Côte de Nuits. Henri Jayer
One slightly corroded capsule. Lightly bin-soiled labels, very slightly damaged. Levels 1cm below base of corks
Tasting note: In magnum: deep, richly coloured, velvety, maturing in its own time; bouquet expanded in the glass; fairly sweet, powerful (yet 13 alcohol on label), concentrated, marvellous flavour, balance, grip, tannin and acidity. A supreme example of the late Henri Jayer's genius. Last tasted Nov 2002 ***** Now-2015 M.B.
