About this wine

This Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots from Domaine Michel Noëllat is one of those wines that reminds you why Burgundy holds such a special place in the hearts of wine lovers. The 2021 vintage showcases the finesse and elegance that made this appellation legendary, with Les Suchots being one of the most sought-after premier cru vineyards in Vosne-Romanée.

On the nose, expect a beautiful bouquet of red cherries, wild strawberries, and violet notes, layered with hints of forest floor and subtle spice. The palate is silky and refined, with a delicate structure that balances bright acidity with fine-grained tannins. The finish lingers gracefully, leaving you with flavors of red fruits and a touch of earthy minerality that speaks to the terroir.

This wine pairs beautifully with roasted duck breast, grilled lamb chops, or a classic coq au vin. For a Swiss touch, try it with a venison medallion or a mature Gruyère cheese. Decant this beauty for at least an hour before serving to let it fully express itself, and serve at a temperature between 16°C and 18°C to appreciate all its nuances.
