Les Suchots is too big of a vineyard, with too much disparity in its terroir, to be counted among the best premiers crus. This is unfair to the best part of the vineyard, which is spectacular. It has a ton of Asian spice, the most celebrated aromatic signature of Vosne- Romanée. Texturally, it belongs to the family of terroirs that give you the greatest cuddles -a little more timid than the unabashed embrace of La Tâche or Les Amoureuses, but plainly put, great Suchots is very sensual drink. In contrast, its finish is discreet, not powerfully mineral, but very long.
