Tasting Notes
The tiny vineyard of `La Romanee` rests on the higher slopes south of the hamlet of Chassagne. Its wines come across as quite rich and powerful, pale gold in colour, with gorgeous buttery, nutty notes on the nose and restrained oak spice. This wine is exceptionally complex and well balanced with a vein of acidity that contributes elegance and poise on a long finish.
Food
An ideal partner for fish in cream sauces, fine charcuterie, duck or guinea fowl and roast belly pork.
