Vinous Tasting Note

The 2021 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has an open nose with clear whole cluster influence, a little stemmy, which becomes accentuated with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a raw entry, quite edgy tannins and a distinct green streak that runs from start to finish. Certainly some underripe fruit and tomato vine notes, though it is still appealing despite all that, perhaps terroir averting potential disaster. Fine. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

About the Producer

About the Producer

Domaine de la Vougeraie, owned by the Boisset family, has established itself as an essential benchmark in Burgundy. Anchored in the heart of the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, this wine estate showcases a remarkable range of terroirs. Biodynamic farming is practiced with great rigor, with the goal of exalting the purest expression of each plot. After being led by Pierre Vincent, Sylvie Poillot now directs the winemaking, crafting wines of rare elegance. Among the jewels of Domaine de la Vougeraie are magnificent interpretations of Grand Crus, notably in the Côte de Nuits with Musigny, Bonnes-Mares, and Charmes-Chambertin Les Mazoyeres. The estate also excels in the Côte de Beaune, with a high-flying Corton-Charlemagne and the rare monopole, Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot. The latter, a historical curiosity, was planted with Pinot Beurot (Pinot Gris) in the Middle Ages by the monks of Cîteaux, bearing witness to the region's long viticultural history. Domaine de la Vougeraie thus illustrates a perfect mastery of Burgundy's greatest terroirs. Among the most sought-after cuvées are Domaine de la Vougeraie Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot Monopole, Domaine de la Vougeraie Musigny Grand Cru, and Domaine de la Vougeraie Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru—useful benchmarks for understanding the house's identity.
