The Story

The Domaine de la Vougeraie, created in 1999 by bringing together the finest terroirs of Maison Boisset, is steeped in rich history. In the 1960s, Jean Claude Boisset entered the wine industry with vineyards surrounding Gevrey-Chambertin and in 1964 the acquisition of the vineyard ‘Les Evocelles’ marked the beginning of a brilliant journey. The numerous plots covering 67 hectares have been farmed biodynamically since 2001. With modern infrastructure and a highly respectful approach to terroirs in winemaking, the estate has established itself as one of the most promising in the current Burgundy landscape, accumulating successes. Pierre Vincent, who had been estate manager since 2006, left in 2017 for Domaine Leflaive, but director Sylvie Poillot ensures continuity with talent, producing wines of unwavering consistency.

“Their philosophy is based on elevating each appellation, utilising exclusively Premier Crus, Grand Crus, and Monopoles.”

From vineyard to cellar, Domaine de la Vougeraie's integrated approach and precise craftsmanship employed in crafting each cuvée yield wines of exceptional purity, epitomising the distinctive traits of Burgundy's terroirs.
