Owning the largest parcel (6 ha) of Clos Vougeot and the only producer vinifying and maturing its wines within the Clos, Château de la Tour is the custodian of the Clos Vougeot tradition. Always vinified unstemmed, its wines are powerful (certified organic from the 2021 vintage), structured and long-lasting.
Rated two stars in the Revue du Vin de France annual guide.
The 2023 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2027) : 94/100 “The Clos-de-Vougeot retains plenty of brightness and vigour, as well as genuine finesse, despite its solid structure and assertive framework; the generous, very ripe fruit echoes the hints of warmth in the 2023 vintage.”
Bettane et Desseauve (Guide 2027) : 96/100

The 2022 vintage in the press:
Vinous (N.Martin - January 2024): 91-93/100 “The 2022 Clos Vougeot Cuvée Classique Grand Cru includes around 50 % whole clusters. This has a very well-defined bouquet with black cherries, raspberry, briar and light truffle aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, fresh and saline, silky smooth and what feels like a more approachable Clos Vougeot as Edouard Labet intends. Yet it has the substance to age over 15-20 years.”
Bourgogne Ajourd'hui (February-March 2025): 16.5/20 "Fine, spicy, liquorice nose with notes of black cherries. Delicious, greedy, tender palate with silky tannins and intense fruit. Long, delicate finish."

The 2021 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2024): 94/100 “Accessible and dense, clos-de-vougeot is spicy and tender on the attack: concentration arrives mid-palate with a full-bodied, firm, minty finish.”
Vinous (N.Martin - November 2022): 90-92/100 "The 2021 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru Cuvée Classique has a bright and quite lively bouquet, red and black fruit, juniper and hawthorn. The palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, taut and fresh, brown spices infusing the peppery, tobacco-tinged finish. It needs to cohere a little before bottling, though the racking will assist that."
Bourgogne Ajourd'hui (February-March 2025): 16/20 "Fragrant, rich nose with lovely floral and fruity notes. Intense on the palate, with a fruity attack that stretches into a long finish with a subtle hint of toast".

François Labet, owner of Château de la Tour in Vougeot, manages the family estate (10 ha in Beaune and Gevrey) with equal talent. He applies the same quality principles: organic farming, non-éraflée harvesting, long ageing (two winters minimum). Far from being the most talked-about domaine, but a wise choice for connoisseurs, according to Bourgogne Aujourd'hui: "to be seized as a matter of urgency, as the quality of the wines has been so consistent for a very long time".

The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, quite a "cool" Gevrey-Chambertin with a hint of brine lending sapidity on the finish. Promising."

The palate is sweet and ripe on the entry with crunched redcurrant and cranberry fruit, quite Morey-like in style, with fine susbtance on the finish. Though the Edouard Labet clearly rued having had to de-stem, it greatly enhances this Gervey."

Vinous (N.Martin - November 2019): 88-90/100 "The 2020 Beaune Coucherias 1er Cru [...] has more delineation and purity compared to the Beaune Marconnets, black plum and just a touch of raspberry and iris petal. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, very smooth, maybe th new oak just a little vocal on the finish though that will be subsumed with time. Fine."

If the Georges Roumier estate is one of the best known in the Côte de Nuits, the Laurent Roumier estate shines on the contrary by its discretion. However, Laurent Roumier is one of Georges' grandsons, at the head of a beautiful wine-growing heritage, 12 ha of old vines (40 years old) almost exclusively on Chambolle-Musigny, run without fertilizer or weed killer. His wines know how to be greedy while remaining fine and distinguished, with a skillfully dosed breeding. Most reasonable prices (for the appellation).

Owned by AXA Millésimes since 1987, Domaine de l'Arlot spans 15 hectares between Nuits-Saint-Georges (Prémeaux) and Vosne-Romanée. This is an estate of excellence, producing some of the most intense, precise whites on the Côte de Nuits, as well as dense reds with chiselled structures that are simultaneously fleshy and delicate.
Rated two stars in the Revue du Vin de France guide (from 2026 onwards).
The 2023 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2026) : 94/100 “With its vigour, aniseed flavours and unique personality, the Clos de l'Arlot white is a great success.”

Vinous (N.Martin - January 2024): 91-93/100 “The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Blanc Clos de l'Arlot 1er Cru was taken from tank on the lees before filtration and fining. Aged in 25% new oak, it offers pretty apple blossom, gooseberry and persimmon scents that gradually unfold, though never completely let loose. The palate is well-balanced, with noticeable weight and left on the entry. This is a concentrated white Burgundy, yet Géraldine Godot manages to retain sufficient tension and poise, elongating the finish. Apparently, this bottle had opened up considerably since being uncorcked the previous day. Touch og ginger on the aftertaste. Punchy!”

There is a real sense of energy and fine delineation. The palate is beautifully balanced with real intensity and drive; the acidity maintains tension and energy. Wonderful detail and nuance on the finish with touches of hazelnut, chamomile and spices. Long and tender, this is a top-notch...what I thought was Meursault but turns out to be Nuits Saint-Georges!"

Slightly deeper in color compared to the Clos de l'Arlot, this has slightly more cohesion and complexity on the nose: dark cherries and crushed stone, a hint of wilted rose petals in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with beautifully integrated new oak, lending this a velvety veneer. It is a little plush yet with equivalent tension and a detailed, slightly piquant finish. This is an outstanding Nuits Saint-Georges from the Domaine.”

Very well-defined. The medium-bodied palate comes armed with a voluptuous entry, almost viscous in texture, intense yet delineated with a gradual build to its sweet and detailed finish. This will require four to five years to open for business, but it is certainly a "serious" Les Suchots with a wonderful spicy edge.”

In 2010, the arrival of Lauriane André (Françoise's daughter-in-law) gave a new impetus to the family estate: 7.5 ha around the famous hill of Corton. This young winemaker had very clear ideas: conversion to biodynamic viticulture (acquired in 2012), limitation of yields, careful sorting of grapes, no yeasting, moderate use of new barrels (30% maximum). The results are already there, the magazine Bourgogne Aujourd'hui having nominated her among the 5 hopefuls of the year 2013, stating "her wines are already among the best that the Côte de Beaune can give". It must be said that her models are Patrick Bize and Jean-François Coche-Dury...
