A fine Premier Cru from the Cote de Nuits is Drouhin's Vosne-Romanee Les Beaux Monts. Exhibiting a heady degree of alcohol, and ripe, earthy, plummy flavors, this supple, full-bodied wine is relatively big by Drouhin's standards, and should be drunk over the next 5-6 years.
Drouhin's oenologist told me the tannin and acidity levels of the wines were higher in 1988 than in 1985, but my tastings made me think otherwise. Perhaps as this wine recovers from bottle shock it will show more structure and acidity, and will be a more worthy candidate for long-term aging.
