Vosne-Romanée Cros Parantoux 1985

Henri Jayer's Vosne-Romanée Clos Parantoux 1985 is a dream for Pinot Noir lovers. From one of the most precious little vineyards in Burgundy, opening this is like unwrapping a special gift. Why drink it? It's perfect for sharing a truly special moment.

This wine was given by Anne to Shizuku 15 years ago, and it features in Volume 2 of 'Drops of God'. Thinking about that scene makes it all the more meaningful, doesn't it? It's like witnessing a relationship deepen over time, gaining even more value.

Take a look at it. The color is a deep garnet with a touch of orange at the rim. As you bring the glass to your nose, it's like the aroma opens up to greet you with ripe blackberries and dried plums. There’s a spicy, earthy undertone that feels like a walk through an autumn forest.

When you take a sip, the acidity is smooth, and the tannins are like velvet—soft and integrated. There's a robust fruitiness with a lovely minerality threading through. The finish is long and complex, lingering beautifully. To really enjoy this wine, take your time with it, savor every moment.
