Vinous Tasting Note

The 2024 Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru has a little more reduction on the nose compared to the Bienvenue, though there is clearly plenty of intense citrus fruit, orange blossom and a whiff of struck match. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, quite lively with good weight, although I am seeking just a little more precision and terroir expression on the finish at the moment. Give this three to four years in bottle.

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.
