2023 Domaine de la Vougeraie Vougeot 1er Cru 'Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot' Monopole

94 POINTS: This unique wine impresses with its quality, depth and character as much its rarity. The fruit aromas of nectarine and Mirabelle plum are charmingly accented with hints of white flowers, spice and beeswax. The texture has great elegance and a chiselled character that one wouldn't necessarily expect in 2023, with lovely freshness and length. The Chardonnay from the domaine's 3ha monopole is assembled with the grapes from a few Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc vines before pressing and fermentation in tank and ageing in cask.
