Details
Chambolle-Musigny
When walking from the Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé courtyard down the stairs to the cellar you start anticipating the vinous treasures that await you. As you get closer to the base of the stairs you can smell the poetically named 'angels share'. Upon entering the barrel cellar you are overtaken by the magical aromas of the wine aging in their wooden barrels. A perfume that is so attractive and unique that you wished you could capture it in a small perfume bottle. You are now deep underground in the cellar where numerous vintages have been aged. If only the walls could talk, what stories would they tell? Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is unique as it can trace it’s history all the way back to the 15th century. The same year James Christie held his first auction in 1766 the vineyards were inherited by the de Vogüé family. Since then the Domaine has remained in the hands of the same family by inheritance or marriage.
Currently the vineyards are carefully managed by Eric Bourgogne. Since 1986 François Millet has been the cellar-master, taking over when Alain Roumier retired after more 30 years at the Domaine. Last but not least, the sales and marketing are in the capable hands of Jean-Luc Pépin who started in 1988.
