Winemaking and Aging
To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested then sorted out by hand and totally destemmed.
Before beginning the alcoholic fermentation we make a cold prefermentation during 4 to 6 days to work on the phelonic component's extraction. Then maceration lasts for 15 days during which we'll use only pigeages (punching the cap).
Intensity and numbers are lead to the concentration of tannins, perfumes and colour. Alcoholic fermentation is realized with natural yeasts.
After maceration, free and press wines are separated for aging.
Aging is taking place 100% in traditional Burgundian 228 liters barreks during 16 months with around 40% of new barrels.
We only use French oak coming mainly from Bourgogne, Allier and Vosges forests.

Tasting notes
Beautiful garnet colour with purple tints, deep and clear.
The nose is powerful with black fruits aromas (blackcurrant, blueberry) surrounding by toast and grilled bread notes.
On the palate, the wine is here with powerful but smooth and ripe tannins. Black fruits and toast notes express again very well. Lovely aftertaste.

Food and wine pairings
Our Vosne-Romanée 2013 will perfectly match with prime cut of beef, beef coast, duck cutlet with honey, as well as goat fresh cheese.
Service and cellaring
It can be served at the ideal temperature of 13-14°C or cellared for 8 to 10 years.
Art of tasting
Owning great wines in your cellar is not enough, you also need to know how to serve them.
Temperature is an essential element around 53-57°F for the white and 55-59°F for the red. And if you don't have the right tasting glass which will amplify the wine's aromas, you may considerably reduce your tasting pleasure.
A great glass gives a large ventilation surface to the wine and a tightening neck, which allow the nose to grasp more casily the richness and the complexity of a great wine.
