Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, Vougeraie's 2014 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru felt a little overripe on the nose at first, although with aeration it gained more delineation and harmony, evolving scents of incense and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and sappy red berry fruit, and although there is a tad too much oak on the finish, that will be absorbed with another two or three years in bottle. Keep the faith. Tasted September 2017<br/>

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.
