Vosne Romanee 1er Cru Les Rouges du Dessus・Cecile Tremblay・2016

A female brewer known as the next generation of Lalou B's Leroy

This domaine, based in the village of Moret-Saint-Denis, was founded in 1921 by Edouard Jayet, uncle of Henri Jayet. In 1950, her daughter René Jayet (Cécile's grandmother) leased the field to Michel Noela, who was from the same family, as a metayage, but from 2000, she took advantage of the opportunity to pay for the land in grapes instead of wine. His granddaughter, Cecile Tremblay, decided to take over the family vineyard and began making wine. Then, in 2003, the metayage contract for half of the 3 hectares ended (the remaining 2 hectares are scheduled to be returned in the future: Clos Vougeot, Beau Mont, and Morey Saint-Denis in 2022), and Cecile officially owns the fields. and established Domaine Cecile Tremblay.
Cultivation has been carried out using biologic methods since its establishment, and since 2016, the farm has completely converted to biodynamic cultivation. Some of the fields are cultivated by horses. Depending on the vintage and appellation, 25% to 100% new barrels are used, and no fining or filtering is performed. We avoid excessive extraction and create a style that emphasizes purity and finesse. Wine critic Michel Bettanne has given it the greatest compliment, calling it "the next generation of L'Ar-Bees Leroy," and it received two stars at the 2018 Le Mayeur Vins de France. I am. Her family lineage is closely linked to Henri Jayet, which attracts attention, but the wines she produces are delicate and elegant, possessing an extremely delicate purity and finesse, and are undoubtedly one of the leading producers of the new generation of Burgundy. You could say it's one person.
