Appearance: In the glass, this wine reveals a deep, radiant ruby colour with garnet edges, indicating both concentration and youth.
Nose: The aromatic profile is complex and beguiling, offering an exquisite array of scents. Initial impressions are of ripe red and black fruits, such as cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, seamlessly interwoven with floral notes of violet and rose petal. As the wine opens up, secondary aromas of spice—cinnamon, clove, and a hint of star anise—emerge, along with subtle earthy nuances of forest floor and a touch of leather.
Palate: On the palate, ‘En Orveaux’ is full-bodied yet remarkably elegant. The texture is silky, with fine-grained tannins that provide structure without overpowering the fruit. The core flavours of red and black fruits are vibrant and concentrated, supported by layers of spice, mineral notes, and a touch of smokiness. The wine’s balanced acidity ensures freshness and a lively mouthfeel, enhancing its overall complexity and depth.
Finish: The finish is long and persistent, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spice, and a subtle minerality that reflects the vineyard’s terroir. The harmony between fruit, tannin, and acidity suggests excellent aging potential, promising further development and integration of flavours over time.
Pairing: This premier cru Vosne-Romanée is a perfect match for sophisticated cuisine. Pair it with classic dishes such as coq au vin, beef tenderloin, or duck à l’orange. It also pairs beautifully with rich, earthy dishes like mushroom risotto or truffle-infused pasta, and a selection of fine, aged cheeses.
