2018 Vougeot, Les Cras, 1er Cru, Domaine de la Vougeraie, Burgundy

[New Arrival]

This vineyard has been missing from the range for a few years after being replanted, with the first few vintages’ fruit going into the Bourgogne Rouge. Just under the Clos Blanc de Vougeot, the soil is rich in limest one which gives a very Vosne-like nose of pretty red berries and rose petals. The palate is simply gorgeous, with a strawberries-and-cream profile and chalky tannins. Drink 2022-2028.
