Description

Domaine Bertagna Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Beaux Monts is a compelling interpretation of one of Burgundy’s most sought-after Premier Cru terroirs.

The aroma раскрыles with notes of fresh cherries, raspberries, and red currants, complemented by a vivid thread of minerality. With age, the wine develops subtle cocoa nuances, adding depth and elegance. On the palate, it shows a smooth, beautifully balanced structure, polished tannins, and a refined, long-lasting finish.

The vineyard is located above the prestigious Échezeaux Grand Cru, near Richebourg, on a stony slope composed of red, mineral-rich clay. These conditions provide excellent drainage and create ideal growing conditions for Pinot Noir.

The 0.92-hectare plot is meticulously cared for throughout the season. Grapes are hand-harvested, carefully sorted both in the vineyard and at the winery, and fermented using only indigenous yeasts. After cold maceration, fermentation lasts 21–28 days.

The wine is aged for 15–18 months in French oak barrels, about 30% new oak, allowing it to retain a perfect balance between structure, elegance, and terroir expression.

Serving recommendations

Serve at 16–18 °C to reveal the wine’s full aromatic range and velvety structure. This is a wine that combines power and precision – a perfect match for duck breast in cherry sauce, roast goose, or veal loin with mushroom sauce.

About brand

Domaine Bertagna is a historic Burgundy estate located in the village of Vougeot, in the Côte de Nuits, next to the renowned Château du Clos de Vougeot. Since 1982, the estate has been owned by the German Reh family, whose long-standing winemaking experience is combined with a deep respect for Burgundian tradition. Today, Domaine Bertagna produces a broad range of Premier Cru and Grand Cru wines, with a focus on precise terroir expression, varietal purity, and ageing potential.

History and Winemaking Philosophy

The history of Vougeot is closely linked to the Cistercian monks of the Abbey of Cîteaux, who helped establish Burgundy's reputation for terroir as early as the 12th century. Although Domaine Bertagna took its current form much later, it has been developed by the Reh family since 1982. In 1988, Eva Reh assumed responsibility for the estate, preserving its classical Burgundian identity while modernising vineyard management and cellar practices.

The vineyards are farmed according to sustainable principles, with particular attention paid to soil health and the long-term balance of the vines. Grapes are harvested by hand, only fully ripe fruit is selected, and fermentation is carried out with the aim of preserving the natural microbiological balance and expressing the character of each individual appellation.

The Domaine Bertagna Style

The estate's philosophy is centred on terroir expression, fruit purity, and restrained use of oak.

Red wines – Elegant and structured, with fine tannins, vibrant acidity, and a clear expression of the Côte de Nuits.
White wines – Mineral, concentrated, and age-worthy. Among the estate's most distinctive wines are the rare Vougeot Premier Cru Les Cras Blanc and Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru.

Each appellation is vinified and aged separately in traditional 228-litre French oak barrels. The proportion of new oak is adapted to the style of each wine and vintage, while maturation generally lasts between 12 and 18 months, preserving the balance between fruit, structure, and terroir.

Vineyards and Terroir

Domaine Bertagna owns approximately 17 hectares of vineyards and produces wines from 18 appellations, including 5 Grand Cru and 8 Premier Cru sites. The vineyards extend across Côte de Nuits and part of Côte de Beaune, from Gevrey-Chambertin in the north to Aloxe-Corton in the south. Among the estate's most important holdings are Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru, Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru, Chambertin Grand Cru, and the monopole Clos de la Perrière Premier Cru in Vougeot.

The diversity of limestone and clay soils allows each appellation to express its own identity, making Domaine Bertagna wines a faithful reflection of their origin rather than of winemaking technique.
