Domaine des Perdrix : Vosne-Romanée Village 2025

The elegance and structure of a Vosne-Romanée Village from Domaine des Perdrix

The estate

Domaine des Perdrix is based in Prémeaux-Prissey, in Burgundy, in the heart of the Côte de Nuits. Taken over in 1996 by the Devillard family, it is now run by Amaury and Aurore Devillard and forms an integral part of Domaines Devillard. The estate covers approximately 15 hectares and stands out for its quasi-monopoly on the Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru "Aux Perdrix", as well as for its holding of a parcel in Échezeaux Grand Cru, two assets that reflect the quality of its foothold in the Côte de Nuits.

The vineyard

This Vosne-Romanée Village cuvée is rooted in three climats located in the north of the appellation, in the immediate vicinity of Vougeot Grand Cru: Les Quartiers de Nuits, Les Hautes Maizières and Les Chalandins, covering a total surface area of approximately 1.05 hectares. The soils are clay-limestone with a predominance of clay, and in the Hautes Maizières sector, an outcrop of crinoidal limestone enriches the typicity of the terroir. The vines, planted between 1921 and 1980, bring additional ripeness and depth to the expression of this wine.

Vinification and ageing

The production of the Vosne-Romanée Village 2025 begins with a cold pre-fermentation maceration lasting 4 to 6 days, intended to encourage the gentle extraction of aromatic and colouring compounds. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts, followed by a maceration of approximately 15 days with regular pigeages, with around 30% of the harvest worked as whole bunches. The free-run and press juices are then separated for ageing, which takes place in 228-litre Burgundy barrels, with around 30% new oak, for a period of 16 to 18 months.

Grape variety

This Vosne-Romanée Village 2025 from Domaine des Perdrix is 100% Pinot Noir.
