Discover Clos de Vougeot

Clos de Vougeot is an iconic appellation from the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, renowned worldwide for its historic vineyard enclosed by walls dating back to the 12th century. This Grand Cru appellation exclusively produces red wines made from Pinot Noir, celebrated for their elegance, power, and complex aromas.

Terroir and Characteristics

The Clos de Vougeot terroir is distinguished by a diverse range of calcareous clay soils spread over a large walled area, giving rise to wines with varied profiles but consistently marked by a remarkable structure and distinct aromatic richness. The vineyards benefit from a favorable microclimate enabling optimal ripening of Pinot Noir, enhancing complex aromas combining red and black fruits, subtle spices, floral notes, alongside mineral and oaky nuances from barrel aging.
