Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru " Cros Parantoux "--Vintage 2001
6 bottles per lot
Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru " Cros Parantoux " Cros Parantoux is the most emblematic vineyards of Henri Jayer's production, and the story of its resurrection from oblivion is recounted above. The vineyard is today regarded as one of the greatest of all of the premier cru vineyards in Burgundy, and many would posit it as a candidate for promotion to Grand Cru. It is a small vineyard of 1.01 ha, which is split between two owners: the Méo-Camuzet family owns just under 0.3 ha, and the Jayer family just over 0.7 ha, vines that are now leased to Emmanuel Rouget as is the rest of the Jayer family estate. The vineyard is located next to Richebourg with a very good eastern exposure and little of the influence from cold northern winds to which the " Les Verouilles " section of Richebourg is subject. It is interesting to note that no Cros Parantoux was produced in 1976 or 1977 since it was declassified into Vosne-Romanée village. As noted above, the Henri Jayer Cros Parantoux from 1996 - 2001 was labeled " R?serve ", and some of these special numbered labels were given by M. Jayer's heirs for today's sale, even for vintages that fall outside of this range. While the Cros Parantoux of Henri Jayer is by far the most well-known, there have also been wines produced by Méo-Camuzet from 1985 and by Emmanuel Rouget from 1989.
