La Romanée is the smallest French appellation and a grand cru vineyard located in the famous village of Vosne-Romanée (Côte de Nuits). The entire appellation is under the monopole of Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair, and it produces highly sought-after red wines that are based on Pinot Noir.
These exceptional wines should be aged for at least ten years, preferably more, to attain their typical character dominated by aromas of black fruit, violets, and spices, as well as complex notes of leather, fur, and undergrowth. La Romanée wines are incredibly well structured, combining both power and finesse.
They are a perfect match to grilled or braised game meat, truffles, pâtés, and terrines.
