The 2014 Charmes-Chambertin les Mazoyères Grand Cru includes 80% whole cluster fruit this year, a high percentage due to the age of the vines planted in 1902. There is fine delineation here, precise black cherry and cranberry scents with a touch of cold granite. It is a nose that demands respect, deservedly so. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple black and red fruit, very pure and smooth with a graceful, marmalade-tinged finish that lingers. This should grow up to be a very seductive, comely Charmes-Chambertin with a long future ahead.
Producer
Domaine de la Vougeraie

Idyllically positioned outside of Nuits-Saint-Georges in Prémeaux, Domaine de la Vougeraie is coincidently named after its significant holdings in the Vougeot village. Created in 1999 by Jean-Claude Boisset of the Boisset group, this fine Burgundy domaine is rather new to the wine scene. Grouping together all of the properties of his several négociant companies, this patchwork of a vineyard now prospers, stretching over 44-hectares across 37 different appellations, nine of which are Grand Cru classified. Today, Pierre Vincent is the head vintner, and takes a more delicate approach. Producing over 30 wines from their biodynamically farmed vineyards, Domaine de la Vougeraie wines, like us, are entirely their own. Balanced by their dichotomy of candor and intricacy - they are by far the most authentic examples coming from Burgundy.
