The Vosne-Romanée "Les Violettes" from Domaine Clerget stands out as one of the most refined and expressive examples from Burgundy, an iconic region known for producing top-quality red wines. This wine is a pure Pinot Noir, renowned for its ability to faithfully reflect the unique terroir from which it originates.
The "Les Violettes" vineyard is located in the heart of Vosne-Romanée, a village that is home to some of Burgundy's most prestigious wines. The name of the vineyard evokes the floral notes that characterize this sophisticated Pinot Noir. Proximity to famous Grand Cru sites adds another layer of complexity and prestige to the wine.
In terms of organoleptic profile, the Vosne-Romanée "Les Violettes" from Domaine Clerget offers an intensely floral and fruity aromatic bouquet. Notes of violet and rose are immediately apparent, followed by hints of black cherry, raspberry, and a light touch of oriental spices such as cinnamon and clove. On the palate, the wine is elegant, with a well-integrated tannic structure and vibrant freshness that leads to a long, persistent finish.
The winemaking process is managed with an approach that prioritizes delicate extraction of flavors and aromas, following a philosophy of minimal intervention. Aging in new and used French oak barrels adds nuances of vanilla and toast without overpowering the wine’s fruity and floral character.
This Vosne-Romanée is ideal for pairing with refined dishes such as beef fillet in red wine sauce, wild mushroom dishes, or aged cheeses. It is also a wine that promises excellent aging potential, capable of evolving and enriching with new nuances over the years.
