Description
The balance and structure of a white wine from Burgundy
The property
The Domaine de la Vougeraie was established in 1999 with the ambition to bring together, under one domain, all the Premier Crus, Grand Crus and Monopoles gradually acquired by the Boisset family, wine merchants, since 1964. Advocating a viticulture that listens to its vineyard, the Domaine de la Vougeraie gives birth to cuvées which, by their precision, their purity, their elegance and their aromatic richness, are recognised as prestigious Burgundy wines. The Domaine de la Vougeraie oversees a terroir of 34 hectares of vines spread over 67 plots.
The vineyard
"Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot" Monopole is a Vougeot wine 1er cru made from a plot of approximately 3.049 ha, located mid-slope on white clay-limestone soils.
Vinification and ageing
Pressing in a pneumatic press with whole bunches for 2h30, then settling for 24h. Ageing for 16 months in barrels (of which 20% are new) and 2 months in stainless steel tanks.
