Domaine de la Vougeraie Vougeot Le Clos du Prieure Blanc 2003
Chardonnay
from Burgundy, France
winemaker's notes:
Vougeot is located in the Côte de Nuits, between Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanée, just to the south of Dijon. Located in the climat known as Le Village, it is separated from the neighbouring vines by a small track to the west and a stream to the East, the Vouge, which gave its name to the village and to our Domaine. The southern edge is bounded by the road leading to the Château du Clos de Vougeot.
A good first nose, quite closed, which opens after aeration to reveal mineral notes, almost chalky, complimented by floral and menthol fragrances. It's like a sunny garden.
Palate: The attack is clean, the mouth voluptuous, yet elegant, with aromas of bitter almond, held together by good acidity which brings its crispness to the fore. With a length worthy of a 1er cru, it has a savory finish.
