General info :

Vosne Romanée Premier Cru - Aux Malconsorts is one of the 15 so called climats of Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru.
Vosne-Romanée wine is produced in the commune of Vosne-Romanée in Côte de Nuits of Burgundy as well as in the neighbouring commune of Flagey-Échezeaux (there is no Flagey-Échezeaux appellation).
There are a total of 15 Premier Cru vineyards in the two communes, as well as 6 Grand Cru vineyards in Vosne-Romanée and two in Flagey-Échezeaux.
A number of climats in the Vosne-Romanée AOC are classified as Premier Cru vineyards; 12 in Vosne-Romanée and 3 in Flagey-Échezeaux. Their wines are designated Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru + vineyard name, such as Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru - Aux Malconsorts. They may also be labelled just Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, in which case it is possible to blend wine from several Premier Cru vineyards within the AOC.
Aux Malconsorts is located at the southern corner of Vosne-Romanee's vineyard belt, along the commune boundary with Nuits-Saint-Georges. It is the lowly partner of the superior La Tache Grand Cru climat.
