Bonnes Mares Vougeraie 2011

Domaine de la Vougeraie Bonnes-Mares 2011 is a full-bodied red Burgundy from the Grand Cru climat of Bonnes-Mares in the Côte de Nuits. Located in Prémeaux, Domaine de la Vougeraie was founded by Jean-Claude Boisset in 1999. One of Burgundy’s leading domaines, Vougeraie owns about 40ha of vineyard in more than 30 different appellations of Burgundy, including the Grands Crus of Clos Vougeot, Musigny, Bonnes-Mares, Charmes Chambertin, Mazoyères, Corton Clos du Roi and Corton Charlemagne. The domaine vineyards have been managed biodynamically since 2001. "Mares, with neither the new oak (60%) nor whole bunch fermentation (50%) apparent. It has a wonderful seamless texture that is coated in velvet and it is gracious and very long. The wine is a great success this year." Jasper Morris MW
