It’s easy to see why Vosne-Romanée produces the greatest wines in the world. Collectors chase it. You can enjoy it.

Tasting Notes
So silky it purrs. So structured it roars. Aux Réas in all its glory. Top-tier Vosne-Romanée, followed by collectors. Here for you
Vosne in a Velvet Suit. Sultry, Spicy, and Seriously Built.
This isn’t your soft-focus Vosne. Aux Réas 2023 has perfume and finesse, yes — but it also brings brooding depth and a firm handshake. Black cherry, violet and smoky clove rise from the glass, with toasted spice swirling through a structured, layered palate. There's real grip here, built on limestone soil and serious intent. The fruit is lush but never loose. It’s a wine that tightens its hold the longer you spend with it. We were hooked.

The Plot
The domaine holds 1.6 hectares in Aux Réas, with 1.1 currently in production following a replanting in 2023 (the remainder was pulled out due to a rootstock issue). The vineyard borders Premier Cru Clos des Réas and sits near the Nuits-Saint-Georges boundary. With limestone-rich soils and a slightly cooler aspect, it gives a more savoury, spicy take on Vosne — less gloss, more grip.
Technical Details
This cuvée was fermented with around 50% whole bunches for added lift and structure. Ageing took place in a 50/50 split of ceramic and oak barrels, with no more than 20% new oak. The use of ceramic helps retain purity and aromatic finesse, while oak adds structure and depth. A beautifully poised Vosne with a firm spine and real ageing potential.

Now led by siblings Caroline and Mathias Parent, this next-gen duo brings fresh energy to a legacy of precision.
From Bourgogne to Richebourg, every wine gets the same care: whole bunch ferments, ceramic ageing, and a quiet radicalism behind the classic style.

I first tasted this cuvée as a 2014, fourteen years old and still strutting. The fruit had incredible weight and density, yet the texture was pure silk: black cherry laced with spice, and that trademark peppery kick still dancing. The 2023 already shows that same DNA — poised, powerful, and built to go the distance.

Verified Trustpilot ReviewFAQs
Clear details, so you can buy with confidence
Is this wine ready to drink now?
This will benefit from time in the cellar. You can open it now if you enjoy youthful energy, but patience should bring more depth, harmony and complexity.
Should I buy one bottle or a few?
One to try, three if you want to follow it over time, six if you already know the producer or style. Burgundy moves quickly, and small parcels rarely hang around for long.
What if I’m not sure this is my style?
Use our live chat, or pop us an email. We specialise in Burgundy and are always happy to help. Our tasting notes are based on wines tasted by our founders and updated regularly, so you can buy with proper confidence.
How quickly will it arrive?
Fast. We ship every wine on a next-working-day service and dispatch Monday to Friday. At checkout, you can even choose a delivery day that suits you.
How is it packed?
Each bottle is wrapped in tissue before being carefully placed into our specially imported Italian boxes, tested to rigorous standards. We have literally dropped them from the first storey of our house. All our packaging is paper-based and recyclable.
Can I send it as a gift?
Absolutely. As standard, our wines arrive wrapped in bespoke tissue paper. At checkout, you can also add gift bags, gift boxes and notes.
