About this Item
Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is one of the most famous producers in Burgundy. Its lineage dates back to the mid-1400s. The Musigny vines themselves were first mentioned in 1528. The family is part of the history of Chambolle-Musigny, where they produce elegant, highly-collectable and long-ageing Pinot Noirs. The estate has around 70% of its land in the Le Musigny Grand Cru vineyard and 2.7 hectares of Bonnes-Mares. Vines are also held in the famous Les Amoureuses Premier Cru vineyard, as well as Les Baudes and Les Fuées. De Vogüé is rare in that it is one of the only domaines in Burgundy that can trace its history so far back in the region's timeline.

Critics Ratings
‘Green gold. Lovely creamy, fully developed nose. Great time to enjoy this with the acidity keeping it lively and round green fruits and savoury stuff. Just at its apogée. Well done de Vogüé! Limpid and beautifully balanced. Quite long, and really rather beautiful even if you need to know something about white burgundy probably to appreciate it. Just an edge of minerality and liquorice on all that creamy fruit. Dry, savoury appetising finish. Lovely delicacy. I've had many a Montrachet without the class of this Bourgogne Blanc.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Sept 2010)
