Histoire du domaine
The origins of Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé date back to 1450, when the estate’s historic building was established in Chambolle-Musigny. The property has remained in the same family throughout the centuries, including during the French Revolution. The name Vogüé became associated with the estate in 1766, following the marriage of Catherine Bouhier de Versalieu to Cerice François Melchior de Vogüé. In 1925, Count Georges de Vogüé inherited the vineyards from his father, Count Arthur de Vogüé, and gave the estate his name. He managed the estate for over fifty years. His granddaughters, Claire de Causans and Marie de Ladoucette, inherited the vineyards from their mother in 2002 and are the current owners. François Millet was responsible for winemaking from 1986 to 2021. Jean Lupatelli succeeded him in spring 2021 as winemaker and cellar master; his responsibilities were subsequently expanded to include the estate’s operational and commercial management. The estate’s vineyard comprises, in particular, 7.12 hectares in Musigny and 2.66 hectares in Bonnes-Mares.
Musigny [Rouge]
Musigny is a Grand Cru appellation and a physically demarcated terroir in Chambolle-Musigny, in the heart of the Côte de Nuits. Located above Clos de Vougeot, between the Premier Cru Les Amoureuses and the Grand Cru Échezeaux, it includes the lieux-dits Les Musigny, Les Petits Musigny, and part of La Combe d’Orveau. The vineyard occupies a fairly steep limestone and rocky terrace, the southern part of which rises towards the Combe d’Orveau. The appellation permits red wines and, as a singularity in the Côte de Nuits, a small production of white wine.

Histoire de la parcelle
The reputation and demarcation of Musigny predate the AOC system: a judgment defining the cru dates from April 16, 1929. The Musigny Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée was initially recognized by the decree of September 11, 1936. The currently demarcated parcel area mentioned in the product specification was approved by the INAO during the sessions of June 1 and 2, 1988.
