Clos de Vougeot is one of Burgundy's great historical landmarks, a 50-hectare walled vineyard that dates to the 12th century and the Cistercian monks who farmed it for centuries. As a grand cru, it commands some of the Côte de Nuits's most serious prices, and for good reason. In the right hands, it produces Pinot Noir of extraordinary depth, structure, and complexity. Nicolas Potel's parcel within the Clos, sourced through Maison Roche de Bellene, benefits from his characteristic approach of low intervention, old vines, and a commitment to expressing the site without cosmetic overlay.
2022 was a warm, generous Burgundy year that produced wines of exceptional ripeness, velvet texture, and structural depth. This is grand cru Burgundy that is already showing considerable charm while retaining the tannins and concentration to develop further over the next decade or even longer.
To buy Clos de Vougeot at any price is to step into one of Burgundy's defining addresses. To buy it from Nicolas Potel's legacy négociant, in a great vintage, at a meaningful discount, is something extra special. Free shipping on 1 or more.
