Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru Les Malconsorts, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses and Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St-Jacques are three of Burgundy's most desirable Premier Cru vineyards. All three are brilliantly located and produce wines that are almost always of Grand Cru quality.
Les Malconsorts is located alongside La Tache and less than 400 metres from Romanee-Conti so it comes as no surprise that this land produces wine of exceptional character. Jasper Morris MW says "Aux Malconsorts was first taken out of scrubland and planted with vines in 1610, relatively late for this part of the Cote. Nonetheless it is an exceptional vineyard, one of my three favourite premier crus along with Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses and Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St-Jacques."
Today I am delighted to offer the Malconsorts from Domaine Remoriquet. Their holding is in the higher part of the vineyard, hence the name Au Dessus des Malconsorts. Jasper Morris says "The serious, intense Gilles Remoriquet makes a fine range of wines...that require time in bottle to overcome their initial tannins." Winehog.org is also a fan of the Remoriquet wines describing his Malconsorts such "
The nose is wide, complex and interesting - slowly adding weight, scent-even with time. I suppose I will have to say it - "classic Vosne flavours" - a spicy complexity, its fresh flavour being its final calling-card. This is rather lovely.
Burghound considers Malconsorts the longest lived of the Vosne 1er Crus and these wines are no exception. These are wines for the cellar!
This is a great opportunity to secure two vintages of the hard-to-find Malconsorts at very appealing prices. We offer our usual 15% Pre Arrival Price for single bottles. This increases to 20% for unbroken case purchases!
Be quick, quantities are limited. You will never find Malconsorts at this price again! Sorry, no tasting notes from the English-speaking critics. You'll have to trust me.
The wines are incredible value!
