The tasting |

Very dark ruby red with carmine highlights, beautiful intensity and brilliance. |
|

|
Powdery, with beautiful depth, intense aromas of wild raspberry, a very seductive and charming wine from the moment it is opened. |
|
| | |
|
Very pure and concentrated, with ripe fruity notes, this wine is full-bodied on the palate, with a touch of oak and delicate, firm tannins, making it ideal for ageing. |

The estate and the wine |

Dominique Laurent is one of Burgundy’s most respected and influential winemakers—an artisan known for raising the bar in quality and precision across the region.
Based in the Côte de Nuits, where he works alongside his son Jean, Laurent manages 11 hectares of vines while also running a small, ultra-selective wine business. His philosophy is clear: only old-vine fruit from the finest sites in Burgundy, and meticulous aging in custom-made barrels crafted from carefully chosen oak. Every step reflects an obsession with detail, and it’s that focus that brings remarkable consistency and depth to his wines, year after year. |

A direct neighbour of Échezeaux and sourced from vines planted in 1957, the 2022 Red Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Rouges Vieilles Vignes is a stunning Pinot Noir—deep, intense, and immediately captivating. Beautifully ripe and concentrated, it delivers a bold, expressive palate with wild raspberry aromas and subtle notes of spice from aging in oak barrels, beautifully woven into the wine’s structure. Framed by tannins that are both fine and firm, this is a great Burgundy built to age. A standout favourite of our Selection Committee, rated 94/100. |
