Vosne-Romanée Wines

Located in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits, Vosnee Romanée is home to some of Burgundy’s finest Pinot Noir. Vosne-Romanée production also extends into the commune of Flagey-Echézeaux, and together these communes possess eight grand cru vineyards––––Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, La Romanée, La Grand Rue, Richebourg, Romanée-St.-Vivant, Echézeaux and Grands Echézeaux. The vineyards of Vosne-Romanée are mainly composed of brown limestone and clay, a heat retaining and well-drained soil blend that provides ideal conditions for rich and powerful, yet equally elegant and complex wines. The Romanée-Conti and La Tâche Grand Crus are two of the most prestigious, both of which are monopoles of the esteemed Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, which our Vosne Romanée Wine Reviews reference as some of the greatest and most expensive wines in the world. To find out more about the top rated wines of the area, as well as where to find the best values, take a look at our Vosne-Romanée Wine Guide.

Top 100 Cellar Selections 2011
A superb wine, the tannins carrying along the dense structure with ease and grace. The purity of the ripe berry fruit is very marked, with acidity giving freshness to the sweet wine. The whole ensemble is developing well, but will need many years’ aging.  — R.V.  (12/31/2010)

Louis Jadot 2009 Les Petits Monts Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $115
Just up the slope from the grand cru of La Romanée, Les Petits Monts has produced a wine that combines structure with a more opulent character. That gives rich damson and red plum fruits along with exhilarating acidity and a firm core of tannin. The wine needs aging for 5–6 years.  — R.V.  (5/1/2012)

Louis Jadot 2006 Les Suchots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

  • Online Exclusive
The tannins set the scene with their firm character and solid structure. Licorice and bitter coffee flavors follow, and only then do the fruits come in. Black cherries are firm and ripe, with black plum skin texture. The wine is very concentrated and powerful. Give it four years or more.  — R.V.  (12/31/2010)

Domaine Dujac 2009 Les Beaux-Monts Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

  1. $236
With great richness, almost opulence, great ripe red fruits are folded into a powerful dark structure. The tannins are right up front, long-lasting and very structured. The final acidity offers freshness to a wine that will need aging.  — R.V.  (9/1/2011)

  • Cellar Selection

All tannins and black fruits, this is a powerful wine. It is tough, very structured, firm and closed up. The acidity dominates the red fruits on the finish. It has immense promise for the long term.  — R.V.  (9/1/2011)

Albert Bichot 2006 Domaine du Clos Frantin Aux Malconsorts Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

Closed up at this stage, firm and powerful. The potential is here, with concentrated black fruits and dark tannins. As it develops, it will show a rich side, the tannins more tarry, the berry fruits sweeter. Age for at least five years.  — R.V.  (12/31/2010)

Domaine Anne Gros 2006 Les Barreaux Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

With its wonderful, heady aromas of red fruits and sweet jelly, this is already a delicious wine before the first sip. Then the exuberant fruits kick in with flavors of red berries, strawberries and sweet plums. As a balance, there is firm structure, minerality and fine finishing acidity.  — R.V.  (12/31/2008)

Domaine de l'Arlot 2005 Les Suchots Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Vosne-Romanée)

Full of coffee, wood, small black plums and chocolate, this is an exciting wine, with richness allied to round sweet fruits. The tannins are luxuriously enveloped in this velvet ripeness. A beautiful wine.  — R.V.  (8/1/2008)
