Structure
THE STORY
A tiny monopole vineyard in Vosne-Romanée that yields only a few thousand bottles a year. The wine is perfumed, ethereal and astonishingly layered.
Rose petal, wild strawberry, forest floor, exotic spice.
Weightless but intense; red cherries, spice and a velvet texture.
Endless — spice and dried flowers that linger for minutes.
At the table
Roast duck, truffle dishes and delicate game birds.
How it is made
Hand-harvested, fermented with whole bunches in wood vats and aged in new French oak.
Terroir & region
A tiny parcel of limestone-clay soils on a gentle east-facing slope in the Côte de Nuits.
Only around five thousand bottles are made each year, and a single bottle can cost more than a new car. For most of us, reading about it is the closest we will come — which is exactly why it fascinates.
The club never sells bottles. Beware of counterfeits — buy only from trusted merchants.
