The Domaine de la Vougeraie was created by bringing together the Boisset family’s vineyards and other wine estates acquired over the years. The first of these goes back to 1964 with the first plot, Les Evocelles, in the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, which was bought by our father when he started out. More than 20 years later came a second phase, with the addition of more vineyards including our first foothold on the Côte de Beaune. In 1996, the vineyards which today make up the third of our estate on the Côte de Beaune were acquired. 

From vineyards in the Hautes Côtes de Nuits and young vines from Clos Blanc de Vougeot, this is always very cool and mineral, but this year has the added weight of young vines from Vougeraie’s replanted plot in Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet. Very expressive with notes of tropical fruit, it’s amazing value.
