The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Vosne-Romanee Cros Parentoux has a gorgeous nose of intensely sweet cherries. Medium to full-bodied, it reveals a wonderful breadth of lush red and black cherry fruit in its exuberantly spicy personality. Toasted oak and copious quantities of marvelously ripe tannin characterize its impressively long finish. Projected maturity: 2004-2012.
