RATINGS

92Wine Spectator

A top note of blood orange introduces this crisp red, with cherry, currant and floral flavors allied to a bracing structure. Fine length.

90The Wine Advocate

...notes of creamy cherry, rose petal, clove and orange blossom. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied and texturally voluminous, discreetly framed by satiny, fine-grained tannins and juicy acids.

90-92Vinous / IWC

...aromas of raspberry, spices, bitter chocolate and licorice. Wonderfully dense but juicy too, with its black fruit and mint flavors lifted by a floral element. Voluminous, classy, perfumed and very long, with the tannins barely noticeable today. A superb village wine.

89-92Burghound.com

There is fine intensity to the velvety yet impressively precise medium weight flavors that are at once seductive yet punchy while delivering excellent depth and length on the balanced finish.

16Jancis Robinson

Slight dairy note at first on the nose but on the palate it is all fruit, with gently chewy and surprisingly rounded texture... Dry and firm on the finish.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits Villages, Vosne-Romanee

Vosne-Romanée is the most prestigious appellation in Burgundy. Its 449 acres of vineyards are in and around the village of Vosne-Romanée and they include renowned Grand Cru vineyards which produce some of the world’s most coveted – and costly —wines. The Grands Crus are Richebourg, La Romanée, Romanée-Conti, Romanée-Saint-Vivant and La Tâche. The Grand Crus Échezeaux and Grands- Échezeaux are actually located in the neighboring village of Flagey-Échezeaux, but legally they can be sold under the Vosne-Romanée appellation. There are also seventeen Premier Crus in Vosne-Romanée. Wine writer Clive Coates has called Vosne-Romanée “the greatest Pinot Noir village on earth” and notes that the appellation’s style “is for wines which are rich, austere, sensual, masculine and aristocratic.”

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
