VOUGERAIE

Located in the Burgundy region of France, Domaine de la Vougeraie was built around a fine family history. It was founded in 1964 by Jean-Claude Boisset. He acquired his first parcel of vines, Les Evocelles, near Gevrey-Chambertin. In 1984, the domaine expanded into the Côte de Beaune, with thepurchase of the Vougeot vineyard. The purchase of Clos Blanc in 1999 gave birth to Domaine de la Vougeraie. This is a patchwork of prestigious plots, grouped around the Vougeraie, the family home. Today, Jean-Charles and Nathalie Boisset manage this family estate.
