Opulent Red Fruit, Velvety Depth, and Premier Cru Pedigree

The 2022 Domaine Jacques Cacheux Vosne-Romanée "Aux Réas" is a sumptuous, highly prized red Burgundy that punched well above its village classification. Sourced from one of the most famous lieu-dits in Vosne-Romanée—sitting right alongside the legendary Clos des Réas—this cuvée captures all the sunny generosity and plush texture of the celebrated 2022 vintage. It leaps from the glass with intoxicating aromas of ripe black cherries, wild raspberries, and candied violets, layered with exotic Asian spices, cocoa, and subtle forest floor. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, rich, and remarkably velvety, wrapping its deep core of red and dark fruit in seamless, fine-grained tannins that glide into a long, luxurious finish.

Terroir & Winemaking Reality

  • The Iconic Terroir of Aux Réas: "Aux Réas" (or "Aux Réoles") is universally acclaimed as one of the single finest village-level lieu-dits in the entire Côte de Nuits. Situated on the gentle lower slopes on the southern edge of Vosne-Romanée, it sits directly adjacent to the famed Premier Cru *Clos des Réas* and shares a border with Nuits-Saint-Georges *Boudots*. Its deep, pinkish clay-limestone soils contain limestone gravels that give the wine an extraordinary combination of velvety richness, opulent fruit weight, and aristocratic spice.
  • Patrice Cacheux's Velvet Touch: Under the guidance of Patrice Cacheux, the estate treats this flagship village parcel with meticulous care. The old Pinot Noir vines are farmed organically without chemical inputs. In the cellar, 100% destemming ensures that no green tannins interfere with the site's natural silkiness. A gentle cold maceration precedes natural fermentation, followed by ageing in select French oak barrels to polish the lush 2022 fruit into a seamless, velvety masterpiece.

Highlights

  • 100% Pinot Noir estate-harvested from the prestigious "Aux Réas" lieu-dit, directly adjoining Clos des Réas Premier Cru.
  • Widely regarded as a benchmark village bottling that rivals Premier Cru quality in both depth and aromatic complexity.
  • A radiant 2022 expression combining sun-ripened fruit richness with classic Vosne silk and spice.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep, brilliant ruby core with rich garnet flashes at the rim.
  • Nose: Intensely aromatic, dark-fruited, and complex. It opens with luscious notes of black cherries, wild raspberries, and candied violets, neatly accented by exotic five-spice, dark chocolate, and a touch of sweet earth.
  • Palate: Dry, medium-bodied, and beautifully opulent. The entry floods the palate with a rich splash of dark red berries and plum sap, underpinned by ultra-fine, silky tannins. A harmonious line of natural acidity keeps the generous 2022 fruit fresh and balanced, leading into a long, velvety, and spice-infused finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve slightly cool at 15–16°C. A gentle, cellar-like chill focuses the opulent dark fruit and preserves its aromatic spice lift.
  • Decanting: A brief 30-minute decant is recommended if opening early to allow the lush layers and exotic spices to expand fully. Cellar-worthy over the next 8 to 12+ years.
  • Western Pairing: Roast duck breast with cherry reduction, pan-seared venison fillets, slow-roasted pork tenderloin, or earthy mushroom risottos.
  • Asian Pairing: Peking duck with plum sauce, Cantonese barbecued pork (Char Siu), braised beef brisket, or wok-fried beef with black pepper.
