Domaine de la Vougeraie
2009 Savigny-Lès-Beaune 1er Cru “Les Marconnets”
89 Points Points
The Wine Advocate
The 2009 Savigny-les-Beaune Les Marconnets is an energetic, focused wine laced with crushed flowers, licorice, tar and spices. All of the elements meld together nicely on the textured, mineral-driven finish. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2020.
Biodynamic farming and non-interventionalist winemaking are at the heart of the approach at Domaine de la Vougeraie. The 2009s saw roughly a 25 days of maceration (including a week of cold soak) with one punch down a day. Once in barrel racking was kept to a bare minimum. A number of wines were bottled in late 2010 and early 2011. I tasted these wines with winemaker Pierre Vincent in March 2011.
