Vosne is said to be derived from Vidumos, which means "Forest". It is
said that Caesar rewarded the Gauls, who had been signed up to serve him
for twenty years, with a gift of vineyards that subsequent generations
named I. Vosne appears as Vanoa in a tract written around 636-650. The
great historian, Claude Courtépée, often used to say: «there are no
common wines in Vosne ».Two complementary terroirs unite themselves in this wine sublime
expression of Pinot Noir. The soils are calcareous marl mixed with clay
to a depth that varies from tens of centimeters to 1 meter. Exposure of
these two plots is rising.
