Domaine De La Vougeraie Charmes Chambertin Mazoyeres 750ML 2017

Mazoyères-Chambertin is an Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) and Grand Cru vineyard for red wine in the Côte de Nuits subregion of Burgundy, with Pinot noir as the main grape variety. Mazoyères-Chambertin is located within the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin. It is situated below (to the east of) the Route des Grands Crus. It borders on Latricières-Chambertin and the Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru aux Combottes in the west, Charmes-Chambertin in the north, Gevrey-Chambertin village level vineyards in the east, and Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru vineyards in the south. The AOC was created in 1937. A peculiarity of Mazoyères-Chambertin is that the appellations Charmes-Chambertin (of the neighbouring Grand Cru vineyard) may be used interchangeably with that of Mazoyères-Chambertin. As Charmes-Chambertin is the more popular to use, relatively little wine is bottled as Mazoyères-Chambertin, which is only around 10 per cent of the production. Another grand cru vineyard in Gevrey Chambertin with a similar name, but no other connection is Mazis-Chambertin which is also known as Mazy-Chambertin. Surface: 0,735 ha / Geographical situation: parcel in mid-slope / Exposure: East-facing. / Plantings: 1901/1902

Producer Description:

The Domaine de La Vougeraie is a selection of estates acquired over time and blended with the family's own vines. Its history goes back to 1964 with Les Evocelles, the first plot to be acquired by our father at the start of his career in his home village of Gevrey-Chambertin.  Twenty years later, the vines of Vougeot and our first plot on the Côte de Beaune were added. 1996 brought more land around Beaune, before the loop was closed and we returned to Vougeot with the addition of Le Clos Blanc, the famous monopole with its glinting gold wines. And that is how the Domaine de la Vougeraie came into being; naturally, like a return to the source.
