Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
With Richebourg and Cros Parantoux as neighbours, you can expect great things from this vineyard. Amélie has five separate plots across half a hectare (although she gives some of the production back to her aunt, so there is never ever enough to meet demand). The site is so steep and inaccessible that no tractors can reach it, and all work is done by horse or hand. The 2023 has impressive depth, flow and purity to the fruit. She’s worked hard on this cuvée, which could tend towards reduction. Switching to concrete tanks for fermentation has helped, and the potential of quality here is already easy to see tasting from barrel. So persistent, with Vosne’s powerful, velvet-like tannins.

The 2023 Vosne-Romanée Les Petits-Monts 1er Cru was due for racking and so understandably it is a little sultry on the nose, more introspective than it will be after bottling. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe and succulent dark berry fruit laced with graphite and orange rind. More structured than Les Suchots with more weight toward the finish, this is an sophisticated Petit-Monts that will give 15 to 20 years' drinking pleasure.
Her grandparents had the vines running across the hillside, while Amelie’s mother and aunt bought plots running more conventionally up and down slope. How lovely to have multiple plots of Petits Monts! There is more depth to the purple colour and more energy to the fruit on the palate, some red- and black- currant as well as the berry fruit, very long, with fine hillside freshness and acidity. I find the finish much longer than Les Suchots. Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Nov 2024.
