Vintage Character The 2022 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Aux Brûlées from Domaine Gérard Mugneret is a compelling reflection of its prestigious Premier Cru terroir, offering both depth and elegance. The 2022 vintage in Burgundy was characterized by a warm, sunny growing season, producing wines with ripe fruit, vibrant acidity, and supple tannins.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing This wine greets the senses with an expressive bouquet of dark cherries, wild strawberries, and delicate floral notes, accented by exotic spices and the subtle smoky minerality that defines the Aux Brûlées climat. On the palate, it is silky and refined, revealing layers of red and black fruit, nuanced earthiness, and a lively acidity that brings precision to the persistent finish. The polished yet energetic texture makes it an ideal companion for dishes such as duck breast with cherry sauce, roasted quail, or aged Comté cheese; its complexity also harmonizes beautifully with the savory richness of Peking duck, offering a sophisticated East-meets-West pairing.
