Domaine Bertagna - Vosne Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts 2023
The Domaine Bertagna is a historic reference of the Côte de Nuits, located in Vougeot, at the heart of the greatest Burgundian terroirs. Founded in the 19th century, the estate experienced a decisive renewal under the impetus of Eva Reh-Siddle, who initiated a profound transformation of the vineyard towards demanding and life-respecting viticulture. The estate now cultivates just over 18 hectares, spread over prestigious appellations ranging from Vougeot to Vosne-Romanée, including Chambolle-Musigny and Corton. The vines are planted on complex clay-limestone soils, worked with meticulous attention to preserve the most faithful expression of the terroir. Yields are controlled and the harvests are carried out at perfect maturity to ensure precision and balance. The Bertagna style is distinguished by deep, structured wines designed for aging, without ever sacrificing elegance.
The Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts 2023 is made exclusively from Pinot Noir, coming from one of the most renowned climats of the appellation. Located at altitude, in continuity with the Grands Crus, the Les Beaux Monts climat is recognized for its ability to produce wines of great finesse, combining aromatic depth, tension, and length. The 2023 vintage, marked by beautiful maturity and excellent balance, allows the terroir to express itself with clarity and precision. The vinification is conducted with great rigor, favoring natural fermentations and measured extraction to respect the delicacy of Pinot Noir. The aging, careful and perfectly integrated, accompanies the wine without ever dominating its expression. This cuvée embodies a noble and refined interpretation of Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru.
On tasting, the wine reveals a complex and elegant nose blending ripe red fruits, black cherry, floral notes of rose, and subtle spicy touches. The palate is silky, deep, and perfectly balanced, supported by fine tannins and a mineral framework that brings relief and verticality. The texture is dense but always refined, with a remarkable sensation of precision and purity. The finish is long, persistent, and of great elegance, a signature of the finest terroirs of Vosne-Romanée. This Premier Cru will ideally accompany delicate meats, noble poultry, or refined gastronomic cuisine. It has a high aging potential, capable of evolving harmoniously over many years.
