justerini & brooks tasting note

A first rate but lesser-known Vosne vineyard of 56 years old that sits in the Combe d’ Orveaux on the Chambolle side of the appellation, facing east north east. It is a cool terroir that produces wines of elegance and tension. The 2009 is absolutely stunning, up there with the very best Premiers Crus of Vosne. Excellent, tight, linear cherry and berry fruits mixed with flecks of mineral, really intense and crisp whilst showing tell-tale Vosne silkiness. Glorious.

critic reviews

94-96/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2023 Vosne-Romanée En Orveaux 1er Cru is very fragrant on the nose, showing a little more intensity than the Aux Reignots, with superbly delineated dark berry fruit, forest floor and light truffle scents. The palate is medium-bodied with quite an assertive entry, and the tannins exert fine grip. This is very well balanced with excellent weight on the mid-palate, but there is a sense of restraint on the finish. Excellent.
