Vintage Character The 2023 Domaine Prieuré Roch Vosne Romanée 'Les Suchots' Premier Cru hails from one of Burgundy's most legendary Premier Cru climats, nestled directly between the Grand Crus of Échezeaux and Romanée-Saint-Vivant. The 2023 vintage delivered a warm growing season that required rigorous green harvesting at this estate to maintain their signature concentration and energy. The estate's 1.02-hectare parcel features deep clay-limestone soils and excellent drainage, imparting remarkable structure, mineral depth, and aromatic complexity to the Pinot Noir.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the nose, it reveals an enchanting bouquet of wild strawberries, crushed raspberries, dried rose petals, and whole-cluster stemmy spice. The palate is medium-bodied and texturally sublime, showing silky tannins, vibrant red fruit purity, and complex layers of black tea and earthy minerals on a persistent, energetic finish. Pair this stunning Burgundy with classic French duck breast with cherry reduction or roasted squab with wild chanterelles.
Winery Background Founded in 1988 by the late Henry-Frédéric Roch, former co-director of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, this estate is a benchmark for non-interventionist winemaking. Winemaker Yannick Champ champions strict organic viticulture and ultra-low yields. Using 100% whole-cluster fermentation with native yeasts and no sulfur additions, the resulting wine is bottled unfiltered, adorned with the iconic Egyptian-inspired label symbolizing nature, the sun, and human labor.
