Prieure-Roch Vosnee Romanee Premier Cru Les Suchots 2022 AOC 0.75l

Prieure-Roch Vosnee Romanée Premier Cru Les Suchots 2022 AOC 0.75l is a wine that emerges from the heart of the Côte de Nuits, where the Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Suchots appellation tells a story of well-drained soil, silty clay, and sunny exposures that have forged wines of refined balance over time. This bottle showcases a family-owned label, combining tradition and attention to detail, offering a wine that resonates with the table and the seasons. The winery, known for its consolidated identity in the Burgundy winemaking scene, tells a story of passion and continuity: an approach grounded in the legacy of winemakers who have dedicated decades to tending the vineyard and carefully limiting yields, restoring the wine's ability to express the character of its terroir without artificially emphasizing it. The production philosophy balances rigor and sensitivity: controlled fermentations, meticulous management of grape ripening, and an aging process that emphasizes texture rather than overt power, with a use of oak that seeks to uncover the essence without overpowering it. Distinctive elements emerge in the nuances: Les Suchots is distinguished by an elegant verticality, a silky tannic texture, and an aromatic definition that recurs between ripe black fruits, hints of graphite, citrus zest, and subtle notes of oriental spices; all of this translates into a longevity that invites reflection on the wine's aging in glass and its development at the table. Within the house's portfolio, this Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru occupies a prominent place as an authentic interpreter of the Les Suchots cru, offering both immediate enjoyment and aging potential, making it suitable for both thoughtful tastings and culinary contexts where the wine's complexity can evolve with dishes with a strong personality. In line with STELT's positioning, the bottle invites us to recognize the depth of the terroir without sacrificing a purity of expression that accompanies the conversation between wine and guest, elevating the wine scene to a practice of listening and shared understanding.
