PRODUCT NOTE
Vosne-Romanée, famous the world over for its Grand Crus, also produces some Premier Crus capable of competing with the best. The iron-based soil just north of Nuits Saint-Georges is absolutely ideal for the growing of Pinot Noir. The grapes reach their maximum maturity and it is by means of a traditional vinification that the lively perfumes and great fruitty character are released. This wine needs bottle ageing to fully realise its potential. The descriptive adjective in « Les Beaumonts » is « beau », which emphasises the quality of the wine that this particular vineyard on the hill produces.
TASTING NOTE
The Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru “Les Beaumonts” 2013 shows a beautiful garnet colour. On the nose, aromas of blackcurrant and liquorice are completed by earthy notes. Ample in mouth, this wine is powerful with aromas of ripe black fruits and cocoa. The finish offers a lovely tannic structure.
