About the producer

Domaine de la Vougeraie, which is located in Vougeot, was created in 1999 by the Boisset family by merging the different vines belonging to the family. The vineyard now has 34 hectares spread over 67 plots and 27 appellations, two-thirds of the surface being in Côte de Nuits, the rest in Côte de Beaune. The vineyard heritage is of a high quality with parcels of Charmes-Chambertin Les Mazoyères, Musigny, Clos de Vougeot, Corton-Charlemagne, and Les Damodes Bâtard-Montrachet. The vineyard is certified in organic farming. This domaine has risen to the best level and produces wines which combine concentration and finesse.

About the wine

Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, founded in 1110, is a legendary Burgundy climat. Its limestone bedrock underlies a soil of pebbles and silt. Yields are intentionally kept low, at 10hl/hectare. The wine is matured for around 17 months in 50% new barrels. The wine has a deep garnet-red appearance. The bouquet bursts with fragrant floral scents (peony, violet). The palate is smooth, with tart aromas of small berries such as raspberry. The end of the palate offers refreshing spicy notes such as mint and licorice. It is virtually ageless in great vintages, remaining able to show great youth after 30 years of cellaring.
