The producer

Originally dating back to 1450, the estate was acquired by the de Vogue family in 1766. Comte Georges de Vogue took over in 1925 and lead the estate into fame in following decades. The current generation of winemaker and vignerons have the estate in top form, universally considered one of the great estates of Burgundy.

The name of the Comte de Vogue became synonymous with that of Chambolle-Musigny perhaps because they hold 7.25ha of the total 10.7ha of Le Musigny itself, and 2.75ha of Bonnes-Mares with a further 1.8ha of Premier Cru.

The Comtes de Vogue labels a great wine under the Premier Cru banner from young Grand Cru vines, and perceivably de-classified Grand Cru wines, that is basically a mini-Musigny. They also bottle an extremely rare Musigny Blanc.

The wine

Comte Georges de Vogue is the largest landowner in the Musigny Grand Cru, with 7.25 hectares, thus owning 70% of the entire grand cru. This is a truly fine expression of Pinot Noir, more structured than the Bonnes Mares and with an almost ethereal purity and minerally focused texture and finish. Musigny never sees more than one third new oak, thus preserving the wine’s compelling transparency.
