Vintage Character The 2015 Vosne‑Romanée ‘Aux Communes’ from Maison LYS & Cousins is a refined Pinot Noir that captures the perfume and finesse of this celebrated appellation. The 2015 vintage in Burgundy was widely acclaimed, shaped by a warm, dry summer and a balanced September that yielded wines of concentration, ripeness, and harmony. The climat ‘Aux Communes,’ situated within Vosne‑Romanée, rests on classic clay‑limestone soils with favorable exposures that give wines their hallmark aromatic intensity and silky structure.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing In the glass, this cuvée reveals aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, and raspberry, layered with violet, Asian spice, and subtle earthy undertones. The palate is supple and elegant, framed by fine‑grained tannins and lively acidity, leading to a long, perfumed finish. Its balance of richness and finesse makes it a natural partner for roast pigeon with truffle jus, braised beef cheeks, or aged cheeses such as Époisses, offering both immediate pleasure and graceful aging potential.
Winery Background Maison LYS & Cousins is a relatively new Burgundy project founded by a group of enthusiasts and guided by Bernard Zito, a respected viticultural consultant with more than 30 years of experience, including work at Domaine de la Vougeraie and alongside Charles Lachaux. The maison emphasizes organic and biodynamic practices, careful vineyard sourcing, and minimal intervention in the cellar. Grapes are hand‑harvested, fermentations are carried out with native yeasts, and élevage is designed to preserve purity and terroir expression. With ‘Aux Communes,’ the team demonstrates their ability to craft a Vosne‑Romanée that balances richness and elegance, reinforcing their reputation as a producer delivering both authenticity and value within Burgundy.
