Drawn from the domaine’s tiny Clos d’Eugénie holding, this is a poised, expressive Pinot Noir that balances purity of fruit with a subtle, savory complexity. With only four barrels produced, it’s a rare glimpse into the finesse of modern Vosne at a very high level.\n\nThe wine stands out for its combination of delicate, sweet red fruit, floral lift and a cool, mineral edge that reflects the fresh 2021 vintage. The Clos d’Eugénie, effectively a monopole within Vosne-Romanée, has a history intertwined with the former Domaine René Engel and now benefits from top-tier investment and precision viticulture under the Domaine d’Eugénie name. This bottling offers an elegant, accessible introduction to the domaine’s refined style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, the 2021 Vosne-Romanée Clos d’Eugénie shows a bright, translucent ruby hue, typical of finely extracted Pinot Noir from a cooler year. The nose opens with inviting aromas of sweet red berries and just-ripe cherries, joined by notes of plum, peony and rose petal. Gentle hints of smoke and spice weave through the bouquet, adding depth without overwhelming the purity of the fruit.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is medium-bodied yet surprisingly fleshy and mouthfilling, with a supple, silky texture that glides rather than grips. Lively acidity gives a cool, energetic core to the red-fruited profile, while subtle savory and saline nuances emerge on the back palate, extending into a long, finely etched, slightly salty finish. Tannins are polished and well-integrated, supporting the wine’s structure without any harshness. Enjoyable in its youth for its vibrancy and perfume, it should evolve gracefully over the next 8–12 years, gaining complexity in the tertiary, floral and spice spectrum while retaining its elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos d’Eugénie lies within the storied commune of Vosne-Romanée in Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits, where well-drained limestone and clay-limestone soils, gentle slopes and a cool continental climate combine to produce some of the world’s most nuanced Pinot Noir. In 2021, a challenging but classic-style vintage, low yields further concentrated the fruit, contributing to the wine’s intensity and lift. Grapes are typically hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, with careful sorting in the vineyard and at the winery to retain only pristine berries. Vinification at Domaine d’Eugénie follows a Burgundian approach centered on finesse: gentle extraction, temperature-controlled fermentation, and aging in French oak barrels (with a judicious proportion of new wood) to refine texture and complexity without masking terroir. The result, in this micro-cuvée of just four barrels, is a precise, terroir-driven Vosne-Romanée of rare scarcity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Vosne-Romanée 2021 is a natural partner for refined, subtly flavored dishes that echo its delicacy and complexity. Think roasted duck breast with cherries, veal tenderloin, pigeon or guinea fowl, mushroom risotto, or simple dishes featuring morels, truffles or root vegetables. It also pairs beautifully with mildly aged cow’s milk cheeses such as Comté or Tomme. Serve lightly chilled from cellar temperature, ideally around 14–16°C (57–61°F), to preserve its aromatic lift and freshness. Decanting for 30–45 minutes in its youth can help the wine open up and express its floral and spicy layers; for bottles with a few years of age, a gentle splash-decant is sufficient to remove sediment and awaken the bouquet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine d’Eugénie is one of the more intriguing ‘new’ names in Vosne-Romanée, despite being rooted in a storied legacy. The estate was created in 2006 when François Pinault, owner of Château Latour in Pauillac, acquired the historic holdings of Domaine René Engel, long considered one of the benchmarks in the village. With this change came significant investment in vineyard care and cellar facilities, all aimed at expressing Vosne’s terroirs with precision and elegance. Today, Domaine d’Eugénie is recognized as a rising star of the Côte de Nuits, crafting fine, detail-driven wines across its range, with Clos d’Eugénie representing a particularly rare and personal expression of Vosne-Romanée’s distinctive charm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine d'Eugenie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54252301975889,"sku":"PS-7784754020552","price":149.28,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/d_EugenieVosneRomanee2021.png?v=1783444019","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/domaine-deugenie-vosne-romanee-2021-75-cl","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
