Lamarche’s 1.35 hectares of vineyards in the Clos de Vougeot are situated in three areas: there are two small plots in the area known as Montiotes Hautes, at the top of the Clos near the Château; another plot is in the central area known as Petits Maupertuis, on the Vosne side of the Clos; and the remaining parcel is lower down near the RN74 in the area known as Baudes Basses. All three parcels are picked at the same time and co-fermented in open-top wooden vats.
As you might expect, Nicole Lamarche vinifies a much finer, prettier expression of the Clos that’s in fact very Vosne-like. That said, a terroir can’t completely change its spots, and in the context of this producer you will naturally find more power and more mineral, savoury structure compared to the other wines listed here. As the notes below make clear, it’s a wonderful release and very fairly priced in the context of Burgundy today.
