Domaine Comte Armand

Every domaine tells a story, but few carry it as openly as Domaine de la Vougeraie. Born in 1999 when Jean-Charles and Nathalie Boisset gathered their family’s vineyards under one name, it is both new and old. Parcels first bought in the 1960s, blended now into a single vision. Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. About 40 hectares, scattered, demanding attention. From the start, they farmed organically, then biodynamically. Not just a philosophy — a way of keeping soil and vine in balance.

The jewel is Domaine de la Vougeraie Musigny Grand Cru. Pinot Noir from a vineyard spoken of in whispers. Violet and rose on the nose, red fruit carried with spice. In youth, tight. A wine with its arms folded. Then with time — silk, earth, a length that won’t leave your mouth. This is Burgundy at its most haunting.

At the other end sits Domaine de la Vougeraie Terres de Famille. A patchwork wine, drawn from multiple family sites. Pinot Noir that shows the style without demanding patience. Juicy cherry, soft tannins, a faint echo of undergrowth. Pour it with roast chicken, or even something simple — bread, cheese, a few friends. It’s the bottle that explains the domaine’s heart to anyone who listens.

There are other treasures too. Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot, a white monopole, rare in Burgundy. Chardonnay here has a stony line, lifted citrus, oak used with the lightest touch. A reminder that Vougeraie is not only Pinot, but a house of detail.

So why choose Vougeraie from us? Because Burgundy is crowded. Too many labels, too many bottles sold before their time. At The Reserve Cellar, we wait. We select only when the wine begins to show its voice. What reaches you is not just a bottle, but Burgundy with context — land, maker, and moment aligned.

With Domaine de la Vougeraie, taste history stitched into vineyard rows, and a family that still walks them.
