(The following is from the importer materials)
This Vosne Romanée is made using grapes from three areas, including the fields below the first-class vineyard Les Chaumes. Old vines with an average age of 50 years are planted in soil that is a mixture of clay lime and marl, allowing the grapes to ripen with a concentrated fruit flavor.
After the grapes are harvested and sorted, maceration is carried out for 3 to 4 weeks. The ratio of whole bunch fermentation is changed for each vintage. Afterwards, the wine is aged in new barrels of approximately 10% in village names, approximately 20% in first-grade fields, and approximately 30% in special-grade fields. By aging in a relatively low proportion of new barrels, we are able to express the characteristics of each terroir and the grape's original dense fruit flavor without adding too much oak flavor to the wine. The Vosne Romanée produced in this way has a deep fruit flavor derived from old vines and a powerful structure with firm tannins.
