| Community Tasting Notes (average 87.8 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 6 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by stbasil on 9/9/2014 & rated 88 points: At first I thought this was a flawed bottle. Initial impression was an old oxidized chardonnay with not much going on. Palate still had nice acidity but nothing but a strong nutty maybe almond flavor. After about an hour in the glass the nose and flavor really blossomed. Nose became citrusy with a nice nutty and woody note. Mouth feel was still zippy and mouth watering and flavors morphed to lemon cookies and spice. I found myself really enjoying the wine by the 3rd glass. For under $40 a bottle this was a nice experience. I would recommend drinking this ASAP. My last 4 bottles will not make it to Halloween. Color: pale gold like a middling d'Yquem. Nose: Citrus and nuts. Mouthfeel: zippy. Flavor: lemon cookies (1933 views) | | Tasted by The Drunken Cyclist on 3/12/2011 flawed bottle: Oxidized. Bummer. (2433 views) | | Tasted by jonradus on 12/24/2010 & rated 80 points: The nose on this wine is extremely strange: horse sweat, barnyard, cheesy, mousy. I'm not sure if this bottle was tainted or not because after an hour the sweatiness died down and became more normal. The wine tasted good, if not a bit bland, with apples, chalky minerality, and lemon curd. The blandness died down and the taste became more pronounced at the tail-end of the bottle. We drank this within an hour and the bottle didn't even show up until the end. I highly recommend a minimum hour-long decant prior to drinking this, or you'll be disappointed. I can't score this any higher without a full-on decant. (2475 views) |
| By Allen Meadows Burghound, 3rd Quarter, 2004, Issue #15 (Domaine de la Vougeraie Vougeot Clos de la Perrière 1er Cru White) Subscribe to see review text. | By Bill Nanson Burgundy-Report (4/1/2007) (Vougeraie Vougeot Clos de la Prieuré Blanc) The nose is quite different to those that went before, honey and kiwi fruit - it’s super in a rather exotic way. Lots of things are happening on the palate, this is certainly the most complex and interesting wine - if less typical in style. | NOTE: Scores and reviews are the property of Burghound and Burgundy-Report.

2018 vintage: "marked by a wet spring, a superb summer and a good harvest" 2019 vintage reports 2021: "From a general standpoint, whether for white, rosé or red wines, 2021 is a year marked by quality in the Rhône Valley Vineyards. Structured, elegant, fresh and fruity will be the main keywords for this new vintage." 2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes: * "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons * "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson * "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes: "We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes: "Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes: "Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes: "The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
