2023 Aurelien Verdet 'En Luteniere' Bourgogne Rouge

90 Points - Bruce Sanders, Wine Spectator

“Expressive and succulent, this red delivers cherry, raspberry, earth and stony mineral aromas and flavors. Vigorous and harmonious, firming up slightly on the finish. Drink now through 2029. -------- This comes from just one parcel in Vosne-Romanée, planted in 1955, and for the past few years has sported the vineyard’s name, Les Lutenières, on its label. The wines are yielding such low volumes that the domaine is in the process of replanting, uprooting one quarter of the parcel at a time. The wine has a sweet density and deep, structured fruit, with profound persistence for a Bourgogne. It will easily age for a decade, which is not something you can say of every Bourgogne. (Lay and Wheeler) The Bourgogne Rouge En Luteniere by Aurélien Verdet is an inspired, captivating red wine from Burgundy, France. It boasts a delightful complexity, presenting a compelling balance of cherries, strawberries and subtle oak influences. The palate is enriched by elegant tannins, crafting a wine boasting perfect balance. Earthy undertones contribute to its depth, followed by a long, vibrant finish. (Wine Direct, UK)”
