The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A surefire address in the Côte d'Or, Domaine d'Ardhuy uniquely boasts vineyards evenly distributed between the Côte de Beaune and the Côte de Nuits. The range produced here, following biodynamic practices, consistently offers an accurate expression of its terroirs, featuring memorable grand crus and premier crus, including the famous Clos des Langres, a 3-hectare monopole.

These rare and precious bottles are highly sought after by enthusiasts and represent the pinnacle of the Burgundian hierarchy.
Wine The 2020 red Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is the archetype of a great Burgundy that is both ripe and concentrated, combining elegance and distinction. Extremely fine, it remains very pure, with a lovely infusion of wild raspberries and noble, perfectly managed oak. On the palate, the texture is silky and highly delicate. This is a wine to be savored and developed over ten years or more. Rated 95/100 by the Committee.
Vinification Hand-harvested, totally destemmed, 12 to 14-day vatting period.
Free-run wine and first press are blended, settled and put into barrels. Aged in barrels, with 50% new wood, for 15 to 18 months.
