Tasting notes
This tiny vineyard owned by Veronique Drouhin sits just above Richebourg. The wine opens with subtle red flowers, cinnamon and cloves on the nose, then deep black cherries, sour cherries, mushrooms and an appealing earthiness. So concentrated but agile, elegant and well balanced by moderate tannins and vivid acidity. Best from 2029.

The 2022 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Petits Monts has also turned out nicely, exhibiting aromas of sweet red berries and plums mingled with exotic spices and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, ample and layered, with good depth at the core, melting tannins and this cuvée's signature saline finish, it will only improve with a second winter in barrel.
