Goedhuis, December 2019
Aux Brûlées sits above Richebourg and owes its name to its well exposed south-facing aspect. This is packed with flavours of pomegranate and baked fruit. Noticeably graceful and fluid tannins balance a high degree of warm, dark concentration. A very poised style, with all the elements chiming in perfect unison.

Neal Martin, January 2020, Score: 93-95
The 2018 Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées 1er Cru has a southern orientation, but Mathilde Grivot was surprised that it only reached 13.0° alcohol; this was due, she believes, to the rain before the harvest. It takes a little time to cohere in the glass. After a couple of minutes, it offers lovely red and black fruit intermingling with black truffle and damp earthy/woodland aromas, delicate and refined. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, precise and focused. Not a Aux Brûlées of substance and density, but rather one of precision and focus. Excellent. 2023 - 2050

Burghound, January 2020, Score: 91-94
A pungent nose is comprised of toasty reduction and a whiff of spice. Otherwise there is a really beguiling inner mouth perfume to the rich and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors thanks to the abundant dry extract that also serves to buffer the robust, powerful and very firmly structured finale. This is excellent. Drink 2033+
Region
Vosne Romanée
The vineyards of the modest village of Vosne Romanée are arguably the most sought after in the Côte d'Or. It is host to excellent Village and Premier Cru wines, but it is its most famous Grand Crusthat truly stand out: Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Grands Echézeaux, Echézeaux, Romanée St. Vivant and La Romanée as well as Cros Parentoux, a Premier Cru vineyard which attracts Grand Cru attention (and prices). Vosne-Romanée can be remarkably robust and powerful, yet be charming and fleshy giving it one of the most diverse styles of the region.
