Domaine de La Vougeraie Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Le Damodes 2023

Domaine de la Vougeraie’s Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Le Damodes 2023 is a finely detailed Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most respected biodynamic estates. Sourced from a prized premier cru site just north of the village, it combines precision, purity and depth, offering a stylish expression of Nuits-Saint-Georges with the elegance that has made the domaine a benchmark in the region.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright ruby colour with a clear, refined sheen. The nose typically opens with red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, followed by violets, subtle spice, damp earth and a faint mineral edge that reflects the site’s limestone influence. On the palate, the wine is poised and layered, with fine tannins, fresh acidity and a core of vivid red fruit framed by savoury, earthy nuance. Le Damodes often shows excellent structure for ageing, and the 2023 vintage should have the balance to develop gracefully over the next 8–12 years, gaining complexity and silkier texture with time.

Production
Le Damodes is a well-placed premier cru vineyard in Nuits-Saint-Georges, known for producing wines with finesse, energy and a more lifted profile than some of the appellation’s firmer sites. Domaine de la Vougeraie farms its vineyards biodynamically, with a strong focus on soil health, low yields and hand harvesting to preserve fruit integrity. In the cellar, vinification is typically gentle and traditional, allowing the vineyard character to come through with minimal intervention.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for roast duck, pheasant, mushroom dishes, beef fillet or lamb with herbs. It also works beautifully with earthy vegetarian plates such as wild mushroom risotto or lentil-based dishes. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to let the aromas open fully.

Producer
Domaine de la Vougeraie was founded by the Boisset family and has become one of Burgundy’s leading estates, admired for its commitment to biodynamic viticulture and site-driven wines. With vineyards spanning some of Burgundy’s most distinguished appellations, the domaine has earned a strong reputation for quality, precision and sustainability, and is especially noted for expressing terroir with clarity and elegance.
