93 / 100"A village red that often performs above its appellation, this comes from a south-facing parcel close to the border with Nuits-St-Georges and sees 50% new wood. Stony, saline yet very smooth, it's the sort of wine that has made Vosne-Romanée famous all over the world: textured, dense and floral with layers of red and black fruits and commendable complexity."

Tasting Notes
The plot is next to the Premier Cru "les Borniques" to the east and to the south, about fifty meters from the Grand Cru "le Musigny". Situated on reddish brown clays rich in iron oxides on about 30 cm then we find very quickly the limestones of Chambolle Musigny. Its north-east exposure and the influence of the combe mixed with its limestone soil gives a great freshness to this chambolle. The global warming in our vineyards of these last vintages are very well suited to this colder terroir of origin.
