Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots Clos des Poulettes 1996

A leading name in the Burgundy wine landscape, the Vosne-Romanée appellation is home to red wines characterised by their incomparable fruity bouquet. Ideally positioned between the famous terroirs of Echezeaux and Romanée-Saint-Vivant, the Suchots vineyard lies on a predominantly clay and iron soil. The Pinot Noir vines, averaging around thirty years of age, are cultivated according to a balanced, sustainable viticulture method that combines tradition and modernity. The hand-picked grapes are vinified with as little intervention as possible, allowing them to release all their aromas naturally.
The bright, radiant ruby-red colour is complemented by an expressive bouquet of red fruits including strawberry and cherry. The delicate, structured palate reveals fine tannins leading to a light, fruity and flavoursome finish. This cuvée can easily be cellared for several years.
