Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brulées Vieilles Vignes Bruno Clavelier 2010

La «cuvée»

Vosne Romanée Premier Cru Aux Brulées is produced from vines that are more than 65 years old. The vineyard is located on exceptional, chalk-rich soil, on a gentle slope with ideal exposure. These conditions combine to produce one of the domaine's most successful wines - balanced, complex and with remarkable depth.

Domaine Bruno Clavelier has been located in Vosne-Romanée since the end of the 18th century. Formerly a trading house of the same name, managed by another branch of the family, the house sold the wines of the domaine but was was sold in 1991. Bruno Clavelier decided therefore to abandon his career as a rugby player to devote himself to the few remaining plots and to bottle his own wine. He was initially helped by his Burgundy grandfather, Joseph and joined by his wife Val?rie in 2003. Bruno Clavelier subsequently increased his domaine to 6 hectares (with plots acquired in Vosne-Romanée, Corton, Nuits- Saint-Georges and also Chambolle-Musigny) and converted the domaine to organic farming. Some old vineyards of the domaine were planted between 1930 and 1940. Bruno Clavelier produces about fifteen excellent cuvées. It is an exceptional example, and starting to become well-known amongst lovers of great Burgundy wines.
