FEATURES
🏰 The 2023 vintage is very young, with information primarily from pre-release reviews. The "Aux Brûlées" vineyard is a magnificent terroir located at the foot of the slope, just below Richebourg, with an east orientation. The soil is shallow, with large stones or underlying rock, and most original plantings date back to the 1930s. Jean-Nicolas' 2023 Vosne-Romanée “aux Brûlées” is already described as a stunning wine in the making. The nose reveals aromas of black raspberries, plums, dark chocolate, duck, Vosne spices, dark soil tones, cedary oak, and a smoky topnote. On the palate, it's full-bodied, complex, and sappy at the core, with great soil signature and grip, fine-grained tannins, tangy acids, and a long, pure, beautifully balanced finish. Other notes mention a lively bright purple color, perfectly judged fruit between ripeness and energy, exuberant yet precise dark fruit, and a very long finish. The nose can also reveal red cherry, raspberry, violet, and subtle spice. The palate is layered and composed, offering red and dark fruit supported by fine tannins and fresh acidity, with notes of earth, crushed stone, and delicate oak influence through a long, structured finish. It's described as full-bodied and structured, with a supple core and velvety tannins, driven by flavors of sweet red berries, exotic spice, citrus rind, wood, and raw dark chocolate. 【Stunning young 布根地 from a prestigious 1er Cru vineyard with significant aging potential】.
🍴 Given its youthful and promising profile, this wine would pair exceptionally well with roasted duck, game birds, or fine cuts of beef. Its structure also suggests it could complement richer mushroom dishes.
🥂 This is a wine with immense potential for future enjoyment, suitable for collectors looking to cellar a promising young 布根地. It can be laid down for five or more years to allow its full complexity to unfold.
