Henri Jayer Vosne-Romanée 1975 0,75L

The 1975 Vosne-Romanée from Henri Jayer is a rare and historic Burgundy, offering a profound glimpse into the genius of one of the most influential winemakers of the 20th century. Crafted before Jayer’s wines achieved cult status, this bottle exemplifies his revolutionary approach: low yields, meticulous vineyard work, and an unwavering pursuit of purity and balance.

With nearly five decades of age, the wine displays a deeply complex and evolved bouquet. Aromas of dried red berries, rose petals, and blood orange unfold into layers of forest floor, truffle, sous-bois, leather, and sweet spice. Subtle hints of tea leaves, sandalwood, and game add further nuance.

On the palate, the wine is silky, resolved, and hauntingly elegant, with fully integrated tannins and a delicate yet persistent structure. The fruit has softened into graceful tertiary notes, supported by Vosne-Romanée’s signature spice, minerality, and sensual texture. The finish is long, ethereal, and quietly powerful, lingering with savory and floral echoes.

A legendary and deeply moving wine. The 1975 Vosne-Romanée by Henri Jayer stands as a testament to timeless winemaking and the enduring beauty of Pinot Noir when guided by a true master.
