Clos de Vougeot

Grand Cru

Capturing all the intricacies of the Burgundy wine region, this Clos is divided among 82 owners. Our domain holds 3 parcels of this emblematic Clos, two of which run from the bottom and extend towards the middle of the Clos, while the third one is located in the heart, close to the castle. The plots at the bottom of the Clos benefit from deep, marly soils that retain moisture and avoid water stress, making them ideal in dry years. This results in a wine reflecting the full depth and purity of the Burgundian terroir. It encapsulates a monastic, austere, almost ‘intellectual’ style, intended for aesthetes and connoisseurs of the more serious Pinot Noir, devoid of self-indulgence or easy charm. Beautifully rustic, elegantly austere, this wine will acquire depth and colour over time.

TASTING

This wine displays a complex aromatic bouquet where delicate floral notes reminiscent of roses and violets, mingle with fruity notes and are complemented by subtle woody accents. On the palate, the initial soft and fleshy sensation leads to progressively more powerful tannins. Robust structure, generous body and lingering flavours combine to deliver a wine worthy of this renowned Grand Cru.
