Domaine de la Vougeraie 2005 Pinot Noir (Bonnes-Mares)

Price $110

Mostly in Chambolle-Musigny, this Grand Cru has a firmer, more solid character than many of the more refined offerings from this village. This is very evident in this dense wine, with its new wood and the power and intensity of black, very ripe fruits. The tannins are already well integrated with the fruit. No doubt this will age. — R.V. (3/1/2007)

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2006 Les Mazoyères Pinot Noir (Charmes-Chambertin)

Cellar Selection

Price $149

The density of a great grand cru from Gevrey-Chambertin is all here, magnified by the concentration of dark fruits and the firmest tannins. A powerful wine, it doesn’t lose sight of ripe fruits, layered acidity and an edgy tannic structure on the finish. — R.V. (10/1/2009)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2005 Clos de Vougeot Pinot Noir (Clos de Vougeot)

Price $155

For a Clos de Vougeot, this is at first surprisingly mineral. Only as the wine opens in the mouth do you find this beautiful ripe fruit, an explosion of red berries driven forward by black plum skin flavors and dark tannins. It is certainly powerful, but manages to wear its power lightly. — R.V. (8/1/2008)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2006 Bel Air Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Gevrey-Chambertin)

Price $87

A big, ripe wine that hints of earthiness and then bursts into powerful, rich black fruits and red cherry acidity. With its balanced, concentrated structure, it exemplifies the power in Gevrey-Chambertin. From a vineyard high on the Gevrey slope, this reveals warmth as well as power. — R.V. (10/1/2009)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2006 Clos de Vougeot Pinot Noir (Clos de Vougeot)

Price $168

From a parcel at the top of the Clos de Vougeot slope, this wine shows fine concentration and rich tannins. It has a velvet allure that allows the sweet fruits to shine, but then reveals solid tannins. Black fruits, wood, spice and fresh acidity all sit well in the mix. — R.V. (10/1/2009)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 1999 Premier Cru Les Cras Pinot Noir (Vougeot)

Price $49

Very fragrant, yet still showing the chunky, full-flavored profile of the vineyard, this ripe, hot wine has plenty of punch and a delicious, engaging range of fruit, leaf and leather. — P.G. (11/1/2002)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2005 Les Cras Premier Cru Pinot Noir (Vougeot)

Price $94

Intensely perfumed, this wine shows both strength and great elegance. The raspberry flavors float over a light structure of some dry tannins. The acidity is there, but it is the generosity of the fruit that is most obvious, going right through the wine to the sweet, jammy finish. — R.V. (8/1/2008)

points

Domaine de la Vougeraie 2006 La Justice Pinot Noir (Gevrey-Chambertin)

Cellar Selection

Price $62

An ample, smooth wine, its velvet texture given a firmer edge by the dark, heavy tannins that roll through. This has concentration, black figs and dark berry fruits along with ripe acidity. The texture is contained in a firm, dense structure. A wine worth aging, for at least 4–5 years. — R.V. (10/1/2009)
