Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes Chateau de la Tour 2016

---

The largest grand cru in the Côte de Nuits, Clos de Vougeot covers 50 hectares, with over 100 parcels and around 80 owners. There is enormous diversity here, in terms of terroir, with a wide variety of slopes, aspects, altitudes, drainage and underlying geology. Add to this the differing ages of the vines, methods of cultivation and winemaking, and it becomes clear why there is such a vast range of styles and qualities, all perfectly entitled to the Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru label. We regularly emphasise the importance of individual producers in Burgundy and this is particularly true of Clos de Vougeot. We are indeed fortunate to be partners of Château de La Tour and the Labet family
