Domaine Lamarche Vosne-Romaneé 1er Cru La Croix Rameau 2017

Domaine Lamarche’s Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru La Croix Rameau 2017 is a refined expression of Burgundy’s most celebrated Pinot Noir terroir. Combining elegance, precision, and depth, it reflects the domaine’s long-standing commitment to classic winemaking and the distinctive character of its vineyard sites.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2017 Bourgogne red is typically marked by a bright ruby core and graceful transparency, hinting at finesse rather than power. The nose can be expected to open with layers of red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and subtle earth, supported by fine spice and delicate oak nuances. On the palate, the wine should feel silky and composed, with pure red-fruit definition, lively freshness, and the mineral tension that makes Vosne-Romanée so admired. Fine tannins and a supple structure suggest good aging potential, with the wine likely to develop additional savory complexity over the coming years.

Production
The grapes come from La Croix Rameau, a premier cru site in Vosne-Romanée, where Burgundy’s cool climate and varied limestone-rich soils help Pinot Noir achieve fragrance, structure, and depth. Domaine Lamarche relies on hand harvesting and careful sorting to ensure only the best fruit enters production, preserving the purity and site expression of the vineyard. Winemaking follows a blend of tradition and modern precision, with close attention paid at every stage to maintain the wine’s authentic character. Aging in fine oak barrels adds texture, complexity, and subtle spice while supporting the wine’s natural balance.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with dishes that complement its elegance and nuance, such as roast duck, herb-crusted lamb, mushroom risotto, game birds, or aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C to allow the aromatics and structure to show at their best; decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended if the wine is still showing youthful tightness.

Producer
Domaine François Lamarche is a respected Burgundy producer known for crafting graceful, terroir-driven wines from some of the region’s most prized vineyards. The estate has built its reputation on classic winemaking, meticulous vineyard work, and a strong sense of identity rooted in Vosne-Romanée’s historic winemaking culture. Its wines are widely appreciated for their elegance, precision, and faithful reflection of Burgundy’s nuanced soils and microclimates.
