Vougeot Wine

When it comes to fine wine, patience is a virtue. This statement is more or less true, depending on the producer and region, but when shopping for longevity, one goes straight to Vougeot. The terroir of the region is almost alarmingly diverse, and you can feel it in the wine – each producer has a memorable, inimitable style, and it can be hard to wrap your head around all of them. Once properly aged, these wines are simply otherworldly. If you have the time and budget for it, it’s one of the most spellbinding regions to explore, with almost endless grapevine fields that gracefully sway in the wind.

The red wines of Vougeot are easily recognized by their deep, dark purple-crimson hue. When mature, they’re bold and straightforward, with a strong balance of acidity and rich chewiness that translates the berries, truffles, earth and savory meat perfectly. The finish is typically long and generous, with some welcome hints of licorice.

On the other hand, their whites boast a slightly pale gold hue, if not almost white. On the nose, you’re treated with hints of mango and mayflower, with other aromatics joining the fray as the wine matures, including figs, amber, and gingerbread. Somewhat dry, the wines are nonetheless rich and potent, with a vibrant elegance that stimulates the palate.

If you’re a collector or you simply appreciate the pleasures of a finely aged wine, Vougeot is as good as it gets. These wines will decorate your cellar nicely before taking center stage at a large family dinner or big meetup and stunning everyone present with power, flair, and finesse.

2019 chateau de la tour clos vougeot vieilles vignes Burgundy Red

((Domaine Château de La Tour Clos de Vougeot Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru Red) By contrast to the regular cuvee where aggressive swirling quickly dissipated the reduction, here that didn't help enough to reveal the underlying fruit. On the palate though there is noticeably better size, weight and concentration to the bigger-bodied flavors that possess a highly seductive mid-palate texture thanks to the abundant dry extract that buffers the markedly firm tannic spine shaping the serious, austere and borderline chewy finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This is impressive though I underscore that my rating is of course contingent on the nose eventually cleaning up with age. (Drink starting 2037)Burghound | 96 BHThe 2019 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes is very promising, unwinding in the glass with notes of dark berry fruit, orange peel, rose petals, rich soil tones and spices. Full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, it's deep and concentrated, with rich, powdery tannins, lively acids and a long, resonant finish.Robert Parker Wine Advocate | 94-96 RP

2019 domaine gros frere et soeur clos vougeot grand cru Burgundy Red

A slightly cooler and higher-toned if less spicy nose reflects notes of various red berries, especially cherry, along with plenty of earth is again trimmed in enough wood to notice. There is fine volume to the round, fleshy and suave medium weight flavors that exhibit good power on the lingering finish that also displays hints of warmth and bitter cherry pit character. This broad-shouldered effort is going to require at least moderate patience.Burghound | 92 BH

2019 domaine tortochot clos de vougeot Burgundy Red

(Domaine Gabriel Tortochot Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Red) Moderate wood sets off an earthy mix of both red and dark currant along with an interesting hint of smoked meat. The acceptably concentrated, supple and nicely rich medium weight flavors possess both good depth and persistence on the youthfully austere finale. This will reward a decade plus of keeping yet should be reasonably approachable after only 5 to 7 years. (Drink starting 2031)Burghound | 92 BH

2019 jean grivot clos de vougeot grand cru Burgundy Red

The 2019 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a deep color. The beautifully defined bouquet offers blackberry, raspberry, incense and crushed stone aromas, all incredibly detailed and precise. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, perfectly pitched acidity and a structured finish that delivers good grip and a touch of black pepper on the spicy aftertaste. Seriously fine.Vinous Media | 95-97 VMA dense, muscular red, delivering dark cherry and blackberry fruit shaded by mint, tar, toasty oak, earth, iron and tobacco. This has tannins that are present, if covered by the bright fruit and fleshy texture, which exert themselves on the long, spice- and iron-inflected aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2047. 143 cases imported. Wine Spectator | 95 WS(Domaine Jean Grivot Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Red) A ripe, brooding and deeply pitched nose speaks of black cherry, cassis and humus nuances. There is strikingly good volume and mid-palate concentration to the dense, serious and powerful flavors that conclude in an austere, balanced, very compact and sneaky long finish. This ever-so-slightly warm effort is a big Clos de Vougeot that isn’t particularly refined, but it is undeniably impressive. (Drink starting 2031)Burghound | 94 BHGrivot owns 1.86ha in Quatorze Journaux, along the Route Nationale. There are three different soil types in this large parcel and some portions are declassified in wet years. In a warm, dry year like 2019, the results are delightful, with bright red fruits and a silky, subtle texture. Lighter than the offerings from Vosne but also very worthy.

2020 domaine coquard loison fleurot clos vougeot grand cru Burgundy Red

The 2020 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a very pure and quite precocious bouquet with black cherries, crushed violet and peony aromas, actually not unlike a Romanée-Saint-Vivant in style. Thet palate is succulent on the entry with candied orange peel infusing the mainly black fruit that merges into more red fruit towards the velvety finish. Quite gorgeous. (Drink between 2026-2048)Vinous Media | 94-96 VMA fresh and unusually expressive nose features notes of red and dark cherry, white pepper and a hint of kirsch. The delicious and intense middle weight flavors possess fine depth and persistence on the equally youthfully austere finale that is also sufficiently austere to easily repay 12+ years of cellaring. Fine quality here. (Drink starting 2032)Burghound | 92-94 BH
