Tasting Notes
Lamarche holds 1.35-hectares of vineyards in the Clos de Vougeot, situated over three terroirs: one is at the top of the Clos near the Château (actually there are two small parcels in the area known as Montiotes Hautes); another is in the middle tranche on the Vosne side (Petits Maupertuis): and the remaining parcel is lower down near the RN74 (Baudes Basses). All three parcels are picked at the same time. As you might expect, Nicole Lamarche chooses to vinify a finer, prettier expression of the Clos—very Vosne in style.
Vougeot seldom comes with a structure as lacy and as elegant as this. 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 when compared to the other wines listed here. Again, in the context of today’s Grand Cru Burgundy pricing, it's a bargain! - Importer Note
'A domaine that continues to make great strides under the current generation. " - The World of Fine Wine, Issue 47
'Lamarche is now a top domaine, with wines which express themselves through their subtlety rather than their power. Since 1999, and more especially since 2005, the quality has been top-notch. This is now a three star domaine. " - Clive Coates MW, My Favourite Burgundies
