Nuits Saint Georges Clos De Thorey 1er Cru Domaine Vougeraie - Magnum 1,5L, 2021

Nuits-Saint-Georges Clos de Thorey 1er Cru from Domaine de la Vougeraie is a refined expression of Burgundy Pinot Noir, offering the depth and structure for which the appellation is prized. From a respected Premier Cru site in the Côte de Nuits, it combines precision, elegance, and a distinctly earthy character, making it a compelling choice for collectors and Burgundy lovers alike.

Tasting Notes
The wine typically shows a bright ruby color with youthful purple reflections in its early years. On the nose, expect lifted aromas of red cherry, raspberry, violets, and subtle spice, followed by more savory notes of forest floor, fine oak, and crushed earth as it opens in the glass. On the palate, it is usually medium-bodied and finely etched, with fresh acidity, silky tannins, and a concentrated core of red berry fruit wrapped in mineral tension. Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru wines are known for their structure and aging capacity, and this bottling should develop beautifully over time, gaining greater complexity with several years of cellaring.

Production
Clos de Thorey is a Premier Cru site in Nuits-Saint-Georges, in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Nuits, where limestone-rich soils and a cool continental climate help Pinot Noir develop perfume, freshness, and firm structure. Domaine de la Vougeraie is known for working with a strong respect for terroir, and the 2021 vintage—marked by freshness and lower yields in many parts of Burgundy—likely reflects careful selection and gentle vinification to preserve purity of fruit and site expression.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast duck, game birds, beef tenderloin, mushroom dishes, and truffle-based recipes, as well as aged cheeses such as Époisses or Comté. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to allow the aromatics and texture to fully open.
