The village of Vosne-Romanée lies between Dijon and Beaune in the heart of the Côte de Nuits region, near the prestigious Château du Clos Vougeot and Nuits St Georges.
For more than eight generations, the Mongeard family has been established in Vosne-Romanée since the year 1620, right in the midst of the Côte de Nuits, producing wine with the utmost respect for tradition.
The Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, renamed in 1945, now operates a large vineyard in the purist of the burgundy tradition. My grandfather was Eugène Mongeard and my grandmother was Edmée Mugneret.
The property accounts today for approximately 30 hectares, spread on 35 different appellations producing white Burgundy issued from the Chardonnay grape, but also essentially red wines issued from the Pinot Noir grape in the best climates of the Côte. Hautes-Côtes de Nuits covers the area on top of the escarpment and the adjacent area of various valleys and slopes. There is only one appellation, Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, which covers the entire subregion. There are also no Grand Cru or Premier Cru vineyards. Thanks to the fruit of Pinot Noir and the youth of the vintage, Hautes-Côtes-de-Nuits wines delight the palate of the informed wine taster. With a steady and brilliant colour, this wine invites you to wine tasting offering a palette of aromas nuanced with red and black fruit. Such a heady bouquet.
