Lamarche

Clos de Vougeot 2010

Burgundy International - Red
About the Session

Session 3 is devoted to red Burgundy, drawing together some of the finest terroirs of the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. Grower estates such as Armand Rousseau, Denis Mortet, Denis Bachelet, Georges Lignier and Ghislaine Barthod anchor a run of grand and premier cru Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Morey-Saint-Denis and Vosne-Romanée, while a extraordinary group of lots from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, including Échézeaux, Grands Échézeaux, Richebourg, La Tâche and Romanée-Saint-Vivant, forms the session's centrepiece. Rounded out by classic bottlings from Volnay, Pommard and Nuits-Saint-Georges, plus a scattering of Beaujolais crus, this session offers exceptional depth for Pinot Noir collectors.

About this Item

Clos de Vougeot 2010
3 (1 x 3) 750ml
Domaine François Lamarche is a Vosne-Romanée family estate famous for its La Grande Rue monopole, now run by Nicole Lamarche and farmed organically. Its Clos de Vougeot is a blend of three parcels within the great walled grand cru. 2010 is a classic Côte de Nuits vintage of vivid fruit, fine freshness and firm, well-knit tannins built to age. Jancis Robinson MW gave it 17 out of 20.

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.

Critics Ratings

"Sweet and scented. Some transparency. Sweet, polished, crowd-pleasing start. Not too heavy though no shortage of oak influence. A tiny bit tarty. A bit confected. Chewy end." - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Jan 2012)
