In 2021, Tremblay had to blend her Beaux Monts and Rouges Dessus together to produce just two barrels, but the 2022 Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru is quite different in its origins, deriving instead from the Tremblay family holdings in Beaux Monts that she regained control of this year and began farming for the first time. The resulting wine is fleshy and giving, with a more supple, open-knit profile than her long-time domaine parcel produced, so she elected to bottle it separately, without the lieu-dit.
An overtly floral-suffused nose speaks of both red and dark raspberry, jasmine tea, sandalwood and a plethora of spice elements. The super-sleek, refined and energetic middleweight flavors brim with minerality on the dusty, long and built-to-age finale. This should age well over the next decade.
