Vintage Character The 2021 Vosne-Romanée Vieilles Vignes from Michel Magnien is a refined expression of this celebrated Burgundy village, crafted exclusively from old Pinot Noir vines rooted in the region’s classic clay-limestone soils. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was marked by a challenging spring frost and cooler growing conditions, resulting in reduced yields but wines of notable freshness, purity, and finesse.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 90 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, this wine opens with alluring aromas of rose petals, crushed raspberries, and delicate spice, complemented by subtle notes of forest floor and violet. On the palate, it is silky and precise, revealing layers of red cherry, cranberry, and a gentle earthiness, all supported by vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins. The graceful, lingering finish makes it an excellent match for dishes such as roast duck breast with cherry sauce, aged Comté cheese, or braised pork belly in soy and star anise, offering versatile pairing options that bridge Western and Asian flavors.
