Terroir, History & Acclaim
Critical Recognition:
Jasper Morris (Inside Burgundy) 91–94 pts
- 91–94 Points - Jasper Morris (Inside Burgundy): Next to Petits Monts and Cros Parantoux. Well drained stony east facing soil, around 70-year-old vines. Crimson purple in colour. The most attractive bouquet by some way, with elegance to the nose, perfumed floral aspects, 50+% whole bunch yet much more harmonious, riper stems perhaps. Alpine strawberry with cherry. A touch of white pepper behind, the best integrated of the whole bunch cuvées. Excellent finish. Drink from 2029-2035. Tasted Nov 2025 by Jasper Morris MW.
- The "Les Barreaux" Terroir: Located in the upper reaches of Vosne-Romanée directly above the legendary 1er Cru *Cros Parantoux*. Because of its elevated position and shallow, limestone-rich soils, Les Barreaux consistently yields a wine of extraordinary aromatic intensity, cool freshness, and structural depth that often rivals premier crus.
- Domaine Craftsmanship: Managed by Arnaud Sirugue and Sophie Noëllat (carrying forward generations of deep Vosne-Romanée heritage tied to the Jayer and Sirugue families), the estate applies meticulous, low-intervention techniques to capture pure fruit transparency, silky texture, and refined complexity.
Highlights
- 100% Pinot Noir from the celebrated "Les Barreaux" lieu-dit in Vosne-Romanée.
- Awarded a brilliant **91–94 points** by Jasper Morris (*Inside Burgundy*).
- A gorgeous 2024 expression offering red fruits, violets, and oriental spices; built to evolve gracefully over the next 10 to 15 years.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Bright, translucent ruby-red with delicate crimson hues.
- Nose: Intensely fragrant and complex. It opens with pure red cherry and wild raspberry aromas intermixed with fresh violet florals, crushed stone, and lingering notes of exotic Asian spices.
- Palate: Dry, medium-bodied, and beautifully lifted. The entry delivers a harmonious core of red fruit sap and subtle lingering spice, supported by silky, fine-grained tannins and vibrant, refreshing acidity into a long, polished finish.
Serving Suggestion
- Temperature: Serve at 15–17°C in wide Burgundy stems to allow its complex spice and floral aromatics to unfold.
- Decanting: A 30-to-45 minute decant is recommended if opening in its youth. Best enjoyed from 2029 through 2040+.
- Western Pairing: Roasted duck breast, pan-seared veal chops, wild mushroom risotto, or roasted game birds.
- Asian Pairing: Peking duck, soy-sauce braised pork belly, or Cantonese roast goose.
