laying-down2014 Nuits-St Georges, Clos de Thorey, 1er Cru, Domaine de la Vougeraie

Medium deep red-purple, this has beautiful elegance for a Nuits-St Georges; a really graceful wine which also has impressive density. Very lovely.

The domaine has developed its white wine holdings, with four new cuvées this year, arising out of Boisset’s purchase of Vincent Girardin’s business. Girardin had farming arrangements in Puligny- Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet Champ Gain Premier Cru, Bienvenues-Bâtard- Montrachet Grand Cru and a tiny holding of Chevalier-Montrachet: Monsieur Boisset has now bought these vineyards. As well as these excellent whites, Pierre Vincent considers 2014 to be one of his best red wine vintages, with something in common with 2006 and 2010.
