    Portrait of Nicole Lamarche

    i. Biography

    At a Glance In 2019, sole responsibility for Domaine Lamarche passed to Nicole Lamarche, placing the estate’s Burgundy wines under a cellar practice built around patience and attention to tannin. In Vosne-Romanée, that means holding the skin tannins until they read as round, with Bourgogne kept apart from that longer approach.

    In Their Words “I work a lot on the skin tannins, I want them to be round, it’s the style that I prefer to make so, Bourgogne apart, I think it’s best to keep them a while before drinking.” “So far, only the Bourgogne has been bottled, and that was done this week – with a good moon. All the rest are still in elevage.”
