2019 Vosne-Romanee 'Vieilles Vignes', Domaine Aurélien Verdet
Bright, bold, accessible, and built along elegant lines. Here is precision in intensely rich, dark fruit flavours, and in a pinot that is bright, fresh, confident, strikingly elegant, polished and engaging. Much to love here.
About the producer, Domaine Aurélien Verdet:
Sharing the traditional conviction that 'great wine is made in the vineyard', here is one talented young winemaker who continues to enjoy an ever growing number of followers. Rightly so: by lavishing such great care on his 5.5 ha of organically farmed Hautes-Côtes de Nuits vineyard, thus does he yield pristine, terroir-shining fruit for wines of astonishing purity and precision.
