The Vosner Romanee village Clos d'Eugénie derives from a lieu-dit - and true clos - of 0.57 hectares, located just below La Tâche. This is a distinctive terroir, with influence from the famous grand cru above and Clos Goilotte below. Larger, silkier wine, shows better maturation, giving it a slightly broader sweetness. The wine was aged in 40% new oak barrels and 40% whole bunches.

The d’Eugenie village comes from two terroirs – Les Vigneux and Les Communes – which total 2.36 ha. I first tasted this at Vosne-Romanée's village tasting in March, and again at the domaine late last month. Only 10% whole clusters were used, with 20% new oak.

Three Senses

The ample fruit from this lovely vintage is spiced with scents of violets, peonies, roses, and even a saline note to whet your appetite. Not a vin de soif, but this does provide great drinking already.

Domaine d'Eugenie - Vosne Romanée

René Engel, who passed away in 1986, was a key figure for Burgundy in the early twentieth century. An enterprising Wine Mearchant, as well as a university professor of recognized worth and charisma, he contributed to training the generation of winemakers who would soon relaunch the fortunes of Burgundy wine (including Henry Jayer). In addition to this, Engel has acquired a vineyard heritage of absolute value, almost entirely in the Vosne Romanèe territory. These properties were then resumed in the nineties by his nephew Philippe who created musically perfect wines. After his untimely death, the Domaine was purchased by the Pinault group which also manages Chateau Latour, Clos de Tart and Chateau Grillet, among others. A path of biodynamic viticulture was started immediately and, although moving on to more measured wines, it remains essential to be able to taste certain lots of Burgundian vineyards
