Tasting note
Vougeraie's mythical monopoly market; Le Clos Blanc is a small island of Chardonnay in the middle of a sea of Pinot Noir. A unique field of limestone soil of only 2 ha. surrounded by a wall bRougevid the famous Clos de Vougeot. The land has the same origin as Clos de Vougeot and was owned by the Cistercian monks who planted the 1st vines here 9 centuries ago. Rougean then the land was planted only with white grapes, because the monks wanted to make their own white altar wine. Today the land is mainly planted with Chardonnay but traditionally a small proportion of Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc has been preserved, which contributes to the unique complexity of Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot. The land is certified organic and biodynamic and all work is done by hand. The grapes at Le Clos Blanc are harvested in several rounds depending on the level of ripeness. The 1st harvested grapes provide acidity and freshness while the subsequent ones provide more fat and fruit. Each of the three grape varieties is fermented and aged separately and blended at the end. The golden rule is first and foremost to let the terroir express itself in the wine. Only one wine is produced: Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot. The wine has a pure aroma of apricot and white peach with hints of nuts. The palate is rich and full-bodied but with fresh acidity and a wonderful mineral core. Super delicious complexity and a long creamy finish. This is the best white wine on the Côte de Nuits and is a "must" for anyone who loves white Burgundy.

The Clos Blanc, a mythical, mystical vineyard, is adjacent to the Château du Clos de Vougeot. This golden triangle, surrounded on all sides by great reds, first offered its pure, golden sacrament to its spiritual fathers, the first monks of Cîteaux, in 1110. Known as “The White Vineyard”, it is like a diamond set in the centre of rubies.
As old as the Clos de Vougeot, The Clos Blanc de Vougeot was Cîteaux Abbey’s song of praise. The monks planted the first vines nine centuries ago, and the white wine pressed from the golden grapes filled the abbey-church’s cruets for almost 700 years. Such precious drops of gold, blinding and rare, are like an island of Chardonnay in an ocean of Pinot Noir... A single violin at the heart of an orchestra.
The Clos Blanc de Vougeot used to be known as the Petit Clos Blanc de Cîteaux, or simply Vougeot’s white vineyard. Like the Clos de Vougeot, it was founded by the monks of Cîteaux, which was constructed on the nearby plain in 1098. Saint Bernard was almost certainly present at the first harvests in Vougeot, which date back to 1110.
This vineyard has always been planted with white grapes, a tradition started when the Cîteaux monks planted the forerunners of today’s Chardonnay to produce a white wine for their sacrament.
This walled vineyard is special for another very rare reason. Despite the French Revolution in 1789 when national property was sold off, the Clos Blanc de Vougeot remained a monopole, an undivided property. Nurtured by Jules Ouvrard then Jules Régnier in the 19th Century, it belonged to L’Héritier-Guyot in the 20th Century and now forms a part of the Domaine de la Vougeraie, sole owner of the monopole.
