The Wine

The 2016 Domaine Fabrice Vigot Vosne-Romanée La Colombière epitomises the elegance and sensuality for which Vosne-Romanée is famed. Sourced from the village’s La Colombière lieu-dit, adjacent to some of Burgundy’s most prestigious crus, this wine reflects both the refinement of the terroir and the artisanal precision of Fabrice Vigot’s winemaking. The 2016 vintage, marked by low yields and ideal late-season ripening, delivers concentration, balance, and classic Vosne perfume.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Seductive aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry layered with notes of rose petal, exotic spice, and subtle oak.

Palate: Silky and pure, with fine-grained tannins and a vibrant core of red fruit. Hints of clove, tea leaf, and earth emerge as the wine opens, revealing depth and poise.

Finish: Long and graceful, carried by bright acidity and a lingering echo of spice and minerality.
