Details
Le Clos Blanc, a mythical, mystical vineyard, is adjacent to the Château du Clos de Vougeot. This golden triangle, surrounded on all sides by great reds, first offered its pure, golden sacrament to its spiritual fathers, the first monks of Cîteaux, in 1110.
Known as “The White Vineyard”, it is like a diamond set in the centre of rubies. Le Clos Blanc de Vougeot is just in front of the château, below the western half of the Clos de Vougeot’s north wall. The vineyard’s neighbours are Musigny and Les Amoureuses located in Chambolle-Musigny.
Grape varieties: 95% Chardonnay, 4% Pinot Gris and 1% Pinot Blanc.
