Méo-Camuzet, Vosne-Romanée Au Cros Parantoux 1996
4 bottles per lot
VOSNE-ROMANEE AUX CROS PARANTOUX The Vosne-Romanée Aux Cros Parantoux vines date from the 1950s. Because of their situation, they tend to mature late, but achieve an excellent balance. 'Cros Parantoux' is a fine example of a terroir revealed by a man: of an almost uncultivated terroir, which is nonetheless well oriented towards the east, but difficult to work. Henri Jayer succeeded in obtaining quintessential Vosne-Romanée from it. The vineyard plot is sloping, stony, the soil is not deep, the situation is cool. The evolution of this wine is very slow, the high acidity ensuring that it takes place smoothly. New casks play a major role in the opening-up of the wine, which you can only begin to understand at the end of the maturing period; patience is essential.
