The Story

Written Notes

On to the Cros Parantoux! We started with a 1986 Henri Jayer Vosne Romanee Cros Parantoux. It had gorgeous fruit with lots of plum and purple hues. There was nice spice and more milkiness here. Its creamy qualities were lighter, and while lush, it had a softer finish. This was definitely on or exiting its plateau, and I remember better days for this vintage. Jayer was always a master of the “off” vintages, but this vintage seemed to be trending down finally after thirty plus years (94).
