- Producer Notes
- This was the first parcel purchased by Georges Mugneret in 1953 when he was a medical student. He had been determined to buy a parcel of Clos Vougeot ever since that of his grandfather had been sold, and had in his private cellar some 1929 Clos Vougeot - the year of his birth - coming from that old parcel. Marvelous!

- Vineyard Notes
-
The soil is pebbly and gravelly, with very low clay content, allowing the vines to grow deep roots easily.
- Harvest Notes
-
The grapes are hand-picked.
- Winemaking
-
Once the grapes arrive in the vat-house, they are rigorously selected for quality on a sorting table, the stems totally removed, and the remaining grapes placed in vats. After cold maceration lasting from four to five days, the alcoholic fermentation continues for approximately 10 days. The total vatting time lasts from 15 to 20 days.

- Ageing
-
After devatting and pneumatically pressing, each "cuvée" (vat content) is then poured into oak barrels in our cellars to age for the next 18 months.

Vintage quality: Excellent
Current condition: Ready to drink
The 1996 year for Burgundy was excellent.
A warm spring led to an early flowering. The summer was cool with moderating winds blowing throughout August. These winds quickly dried grapes after rainfall which is crucial to keeping rot at bay. Temperatures only heated u...
