Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir
Pinot noir is an important red grape variety in Burgundy and Champagne, and its reputation is well known! Great wines such as the Domaine de la Romanée Conti elaborate their wines from this famous grape variety, and make it a great variety. When properly vinified, pinot noit produces red wines of great finesse, with a wide range of aromas depending on its advancement (fruit, undergrowth, leather). it is also the only red grape variety authorized in Alsace. Pinot Noir is not easily cultivated beyond our borders, although it has enjoyed some success in Oregon, the United States, Australia and New Zealand.

The wine region of Vougeot
Vougeot is a small, 88-hectare (217-acre) commune in the heart of Burgundy's Côte de Nuits sub-region. The tiny Village, wedged between Vosne-Romanée to the South and Chambolle-Musigny to the North, is dominated by 51 hectares (126 acres) of Grand Cru Vineyard: the iconic Clos de Vougeot. The remainder is given over four Premier Cru sites and a tiny enclave of basic, village-level Vougeot The main site - the Clos de Vougeot vineyard and its attendant château buildings - covers three quarters of vineyard land in the Central and southern portion of the appellation. However, much like Echezeaux nearby, its Size has diluted its reputation and most commentators recommend acquiring wines from known plots within the clos or from well-regarded producers here.
The wine region of Burgundy
Bourgogne is the catch-all regional appellation title of the Burgundy wine region in eastern France ("Bourgogne" is the French name for Burgundy). Burgundy has a Complex and comprehensive appellation system; counting Premier Cru and Grand Cru titles, the region has over 700 appellation titles for its wines. Thus, Burgundy wines often come from one Vineyard (or several separate vineyards) without an appellation title specific to the region, Village or even vineyard. A standard Burgundy wine may be made from grapes grown in one or more of Burgundy's 300 communes.
