DOMAINE DE LA VOUGERAIE Puligny-Montrachet - Cote de Beaune 2024 CASE x 6 Bottles - PRE-RELEASE

Description

Domaine de la Vougeraie, located in Prémeaux, just south of Nuits-Saint-Georges, was established in 1999 by Jean-Claude Boisset of the Boisset group. The creation of the winery involved consolidating vineyard holdings from various negociant companies that Boisset had acquired over the years. The name "Vougeraie" reflects the significant vineyards and the family home situated in the village of Vougeot, while the production facilities are housed in the historic cellars once belonging to Claudine Deschamps, Jean-Claude Boisset's wife.

The domaine is committed to high-quality production, using biodynamic farming practices in its premier and grand cru vineyards to ensure the health of the vines and terroir. With carefully limited yields, Domaine de la Vougeraie produces elegant and expressive wines that reflect the unique characteristics of Burgundy, showcasing its dedication to craftsmanship and sustainability in winemaking. The estate's focus on biodynamic principles positions it as a forward-thinking producer in the region, earning acclaim among wine enthusiasts and collectors.

This Puligny-Montrachet comeas from three tiny plots: La Rue aux Vaches, Noyer Bret and Aux Paupillots. Some vines were planted in 1956. Production is down nearly 60%; the result is classic Puligny at its best. There’s a hint of coconut and bright, crisp fruit, with confit lemon and fleshy white peach. The wine is framed by acidity and a persistent finish.

Neal Martin for Vinous 86-88 points
:"The 2024 Puligny-Montrachet Village comes from three different lieux-dits. It has a clean and defined nose, nothing outrageously complex, a little Chassagne-like in style. The palate is well balanced with, again, surprising fatness on the mid-palate, plenty of substance but I would have preferred more nervosité and acidity on the finish."
Drink 2026-2031. Tasted January 2026
