"To Tremblay's previous holdings in Aux Commune and Aux Jacheres (both immediately below the village itself), her 2006 Vosne Romanee Vieilles Vignes has added fruit from a parcel in Les Rouges du Dessus, high above Echezeaux and Beaumonts, for a total of nine barrels (two new, and reflecting Tremblay's preference for Jupilles oak). A complex and alluring amalgam of oriental spices allied to sweetly ripe plum and cassis scent the nose, ushering in an inner-mouth performance of almost smarting intensity of pepper, resin, citrus oil, and brown spices, supported by palpable sense of sheer extract. An abundance of fine tannins are well-woven into this dense fabric that may set some palates to itching, but there is an abundance of glycerin and sheer primary juiciness all the way through the long finish. This is not Pinot for the faint of heart. . ."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Arguably Burgundy's most exalted village, home to legendary Grand Crus. Its Pinot Noir is renowned for perfume, silk and sublime complexity.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
