The village of Vougeot is in the centre of the Côte de Nuits, anked on the north by Chambolle Musigny and on the south by Flagey Echezeaux and Vosne Romanée. The 50 ha vineyard faces the east. The geological composition ranges from chalky stoney clay, on the higher parts of the slope, to moist, compact soil richer in humus and with fewer stones on the lower slopes. This legendary wine has great power, depth and a fragrant, floral bouquet. Serve with roasted or sauced red meat, pheasant, venison or other large game and medium-strength cheeses such as Camembert.
