    The Clos Vougeot vineyard covers 50 hectares in the heart of the Côte de Nuits. The soil is composed primarily of limestone and clay, providing excellent drainage and promoting optimal grape ripening. The continental climate, with cold winters and hot summers, allows for a beautiful expression of the grape varieties. The vines, several decades old, are cultivated with care, each plot worked in a way that respects biodiversity and the natural balance.

    Owner and history

    Today, Domaine Lamarche is run by Nicole and her daughter, the young and talented owner, who passionately carry on the family tradition. Their commitment to quality and respect for the environment is reflected in every bottle produced. They are dedicated to showcasing the treasures of Burgundy's terroir, while also innovating to adapt to contemporary challenges. Together, they continue to write the story of an iconic estate, leaving their mark on the Burgundy wine landscape.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Lamarche is a meticulous process, blending tradition with modern techniques. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted before being destemmed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats, allowing for gentle tannin extraction. Aging occurs in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 18 months. This attention to detail at every stage guarantees wines of great finesse, revealing the full richness of the Burgundy terroir.
