ready-keep2012 Clos Blanc de Vougeot, 1er Cru, Domaine de la Vougeraie

This superb domaine continues to grow in reputation. Winemaker Pierre Vincent’s style is for lighter colours and very sensual wines and he has done a cracking job again in 2012; a vintage which supported the plentiful use of whole bunch fermentation. The domaine is certified organic and fully biodynamic.

Fine, bright and clear in colour, and although the bouquet begins discreetly, it is not long before the fruit bursts out. There are some fresh pear notes on the palate and an exceptionally pure, long finish. This brilliant wine is an absolute bundle of energy. Drink now to 2024.
