Summary of the link

1.   Information on the geographical area

(a)   Description of the natural factors relevant to the link
The geographical area is situated in the Côte de Nuits winegrowing area and is a straight-sided elevation which extends some 25 kilometres in a roughly north/south direction. This landscape of tectonic origin separates the limestone plateaux of the ‘Hautes Côtes’ [high slopes] to the west, at an altitude of between 400 and 500 metres, from the Bresse plain to the east, a Tertiary graben at an altitude of almost 250 metres to the right of the ‘Côte’ [slope].
The climate is temperate maritime, moderated by continental or southern influences, the latter extending back through the Rhône corridor. The maritime character of the region is evident in the regular moderate rainfall, around 750 millimetres per year, without significant summer droughts. Temperatures are quite cool with an annual average of 10,5 °C. The ‘Côte’, to the east of the Morvan massif and the Burgundy plateaux, enjoys a position sheltered from the prevailing wind that makes it warmer and drier.
The geographical area is limited to a single municipality, Vougeot, between the city of Dijon and the town of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the department of Côte-d’Or in Burgundy.
At Vougeot, the brow of the ‘Côte’, at a height of some 150 metres, is made up of layers of Bajocian and Bathonian limestone (Middle Jurassic), the backbone of which is formed of the especially compact Comblanchien limestone. A thin layer of Bajocian marl (argillaceous limestone) is interposed within the limestone layers in the lower part of the slope, forming a slight bench in the landscape.
The ‘Clos de Vougeot’ vineyard nestles at the foot of the slope, on the piedmont, at an altitude of between 240 m and 265 m. It is located at the end of a steep-sided combe that has formed a small alluvial fan. The geological substrate, covered by surface formations, has no outcrops. The lower part of the slope rests on a substrate consisting of marl deposits known as the ‘marnes de Bresse’, while the upper part of the slope rests on a shallow Jurassic limestone slab. The central part has many fissures and a complex structure. Throughout the ‘Clos’ there are layers of scree formed of a mixture of clay and silt, resulting from the alteration of the subsoil and the overlying terrain and forming an alluvial fan in the southern part. The nature of the layers varies depending on their position. While very stony and thin at the top of the ‘Clos’, they have more clay and are thicker on the ‘marnes de Bresse’.
The soils are poorly developed, generally carbonate, shallow and well-drained on the limestone substrate, and relatively deep, leached at the surface and poorly drained in the eastern part.
(b)   Description of the human factors relevant to the link
The history of the ‘Clos de Vougeot’ is inextricably linked to that of Cîteaux Abbey, where the Cistercian Order originated. Shortly after 1098, when the abbey was founded, the monks acquired plots of land in the municipality of Vougeot which, over time, would develop into a considerable parcel of land. A century later, the land was walled, but the ‘Clos’ did not come under the full control of the abbey until the 18th century. At the same time, a fermentation cellar was constructed in the middle of the ‘Clos’ that became the modern-day Château du Clos Vougeot, a centre of Burgundy winegrowing. The monks remained the sole owners until the French Revolution of 1789. It was then confiscated like all ecclesiastical property and sold at auction. It changed hands a number of times until 1889, when it was finally sub-divided. It is now shared between around 80 owners.
‘Clos de Vougeot’ or ‘Clos Vougeot’ was recognised as a controlled designation of origin by decree in 1937. The owners and operators formed a consortium in 1947.
Among the vineyards of Burgundy, several ‘climats’ [vineyard sites with specific characteristics] have emerged over time that regularly produce exceptional wines, like ‘Clos de Vougeot’. They lie at the heart of the best locations, with optimal soil and climatic conditions. They were identified and named centuries ago and both the vineyards and the cellars receive the greatest attention and care from the winegrowers. Year after year, these ‘climats’ produce the most perfect wines that have occupied the top position in the classification of great Burgundy wines for several centuries. The term ‘grand cru’, used to describe them, has appeared on the labels since the beginning of the 20th century and is well-established.
Vines are trained according to practices in use throughout the ‘Côte de Nuits’. Specifically, the planting density exceeds 9 000 plants per hectare and the main grape variety is Pinot Noir N. Producers understand that the soils represent valuable heritage and therefore take great care to conserve them. It is customary to let the wines develop for several months, enabling them to gain remarkable ageing potential.
In 2024, the vineyards covered an area of around 49 hectares, producing an annual average of 1 804 hectolitres.
2.   Information on the quality and characteristics of the product

The wines are a deep red colour. Their bouquet has exceptional aromatic intensity, with a blend of concentrated flavours of red and black berries, reminiscent of cherry, blackberry or blackcurrant, and notes of undergrowth or violet. In the mouth, they are full-bodied, fleshy, long and in general have a good balance between delicate tannins, roundness and subtle acidity. Their aromas are remarkably long-lasting. The wines improve with age over many years.
3.   Causal interactions

The maritime climate, with southern and continental influences, combined with a particularly favourable topographical situation, perfect exposure on the slopes, and stony soils produced by the erosion of Jurassic limestone, give this walled site every advantage for the cultivation of high quality wines. The ‘Clos de Vougeot’ is an ideal site for the grape variety Pinot Noir N, which is native to Burgundy. On that site it develops to its full potential, which is thus expressed with a particular elegance. Managed with the aim of producing small yields, the vines are very carefully tended by the growers.
The Clos de Vougeot vineyard was only subdivided in 1889, although it was walled by the monks of Cîteaux in 1198. These thousand years of history illustrate and transcend the notion of ‘climat’ specific to Burgundy. Almost 80 owners now share the 50 hectares of vineyard, but the Clos de Vougeot remains unique and its reputation, held since at least the 17th century, has been maintained over time.
In 1816 Jullien, in his ‘Topographie de tous les vignobles connus’ [Topography of all known vineyards], listed the red wines of the Clos de Vougeot as being among the finest wines in Burgundy. In 1855 Dr Lavalle categorised them as ‘unparalleled’ and in 1860 the Viticulture Committee of Beaune County designated all the wines from the Clos de Vougeot as ‘first class’. The standing of the Clos de Vougeot is the result of both its prestigious history and the remarkable quality of its production. Its wines are sold and sought after worldwide.
The ‘Clos’, with its wall and its castle (both recognised as ‘historical landmarks’), nestling at the heart of an exceptional site, remains the symbol of the greatness of Burgundy wines. Since 1944 the Château du Clos Vougeot has been the headquarters of the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, and has provided a worthy setting for the organisation’s activities promoting Burgundy wines around the world.
