Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 2009 is a 1er Cru Burgundy from the hallowed terroir of Vosne-Romanée in the Côte de Nuits. The climat of Les Suchots is the largest in the appellation and separates the Grands Crus of Echézeaux and Romanée-Saint-Vivant. It is considered by many aficionados to be a `superior` 1er Cru. Domaine Hudelot-Noëllat winemaker Charles Van Canneyt, who took over from his grandfather, Alain Hudelot-Noëllat, in 2008, is regarded as one Burgundy`s rising stars and produces very fine Pinot Noirs. "A highly complex and very Vosne nose features mild wood influence along with abundant spice notes on the red currant, plum and black cherry fruit and violet suffused aromas that are very much in keeping with the rich, seductive and velvet-textured flavours that evidence controlled power. This is quite suave but there is fine definition, focus and excellent length. In a word, terrific." Burghound, 2012

Medium red. A step up in sappiness on the nose from the preceding samples, with notes of mint and orange zest lifting the aromas of cherry, raspberry and red licorice. Lush, suave and intense on the palate, with excellent inner-mouth tension to the red berry, mineral and spice flavors. Lovely fruit and energy here. The slowly mounting finish features thoroughly integrated tannins and very good focus for the year. A superb showing.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2012

The 2009 Vosne-Romanee Les Suchots is a complex, engaging wine. It fills out beautifully on the mid-palate with generous dark fruit, spices, leather, licorice and tobacco. Soft and engaging through to the finish, the Suchots impresses for its fine balance and harmony. The vines in this parcel are 90 years old. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
I tasted the following wines with Charles Van Canneyt, Alain Hudelot’s grandson. Van Canneyt showed me a few 2008s before moving into the 2009s. The estate did some chaptalization in 2008. Based on the selection of wines I tasted, that may have robbed some of the 2008s of their vintage character. Vintage 2009 seems to have played more to the estate’s strengths. The estate used 50% new oak for the Grand Crus and 30% for the 1ers.
