This is village-level Vosne from Drouhin's Maison range, which is the honest, affordable way into a commune where the grands crus run into five figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2021 vintage tells its own story. A brutal April frost and a summer of mildew cut Burgundy's crop to one of the smallest harvests on record, and the survivors came in with lower alcohol and a return to what people call old-school Burgundy: pale, fresh, floral, more about scent than muscle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVéronique Boss-Drouhin's note leans into that elegance. The aromas run wide — wild cherry, nutmeg, a note of camphor wood and fine leather, then a whisper of truffle as it sits. The balance between tannin and acidity is neat and precise, giving the wine a fleshy body and a long, quietly powerful finish. It is a wine of nuance rather than force, which is exactly what good Vosne should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt £100 this is real Vosne-Romanée from a serious house in a difficult, low-yield year — not a bargain in absolute terms, but fair for the pedigree and scarcity. Drink it over the next decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Serve\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 16°C in a large Burgundy glass. A short decant of 30 to 45 minutes is plenty; the delicate 2021 style needs coaxing, not battering with air.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere to Drink It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNoble Rot for the wine crowd who will appreciate it. J Sheekey if you fancy Pinot with something from the sea. The River Cafe for an unhurried Italian-accented lunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoast guinea fowl or a mushroom risotto both meet its earthy, red-fruited side beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House of Decant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56925263036740,"sku":"HO33405B21","price":99.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0858\/2551\/9940\/files\/HO33405B21.png?v=1784037568","url":"https:\/\/checkout.houseofdecant.com\/products\/vosne-romanee-joseph-drouhin-2021-75cl","provider":"House of Decant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
