Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, Vougeraie's 2014 Nuits Saint Georges 1Er Cru Clos des Thorey has a very intense bouquet with small red cherries (maraschino), wild strawberry and just a faint hint of boot polish. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, rounded and smooth in texture, quite spicy toward the finish and blessed with quite a persistent aftertaste that gives away the whole bunch vinification. It does not quite possess the sophistication of the best Nuits-Saint-Georges from this vintage, but it does boast sheer drinkability. Tasted September 2017.

Moderately saturated medium red. Higher-pitched on the nose than the village Chambolle, offering good mineral lift to the aromas of raspberry and spices. Lovely stony minerality further energizes the fine-grained flavors of cranberry and blood orange. This dry, classic, understated Burgundy has the energy to evolve slowly and gracefully in bottle.
(just bottled; from 50-year-old vines): Pale red. Very closed nose hints at red berries, mint and underbrush. Juicy and spicy but a bit imploded following the bottling; an impression of saline minerality energizes the middle palate. Finishes salty, tactile and alive, with noteworthy tension and length. This premier cru should be very flexible at the table.
