Vosne-Romanée Vieilles Vignes Cécile Tremblay 2012
The wine
This AOC Vosne-Romanée is produced from one of the most renowned terroirs of Burgundy, a terroir of limestone, marl and clay. Not far from the fine wines of Romanée-Conti, La Tâche and La Romanée, Cécile Tremblay’s Vosne-Romanée Vieilles Vignes charms with its aromas of small red and black fruits and its complex nose combining spices, leather and roasted notes (coffee, toast). Will amply reward aging.
About the Producer Cécile Tremblay
In 2003, Cécile Tremblay was only 25 years old and had just finished her studies when she decided to go back to her hometown to work there. It covered four hectares of vines between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Gevrey-Chambertin. The young winemaker was lucky enough to work in 11 different appellations, including some Grands Crus (Echezeaux and Chapelle-Chambertin), cultivating the vines organically. In just a few years, Cécile Tremblay – whose great uncle is none other than Henri Jayer – has dramatically improved the quality of her wines, becoming one of the must-try rising stars of the Côte-de-Nuits.
