Domaine de La Vougeraie is an estate in the village of Premeaux, Burgundy that was created after the highly-regarded Boisset family combined several of their vineyard holdings throughout the Côte d'Or. Today the land covers nearly 98 acres in 30 different appellations including six grand cru plots, eight premier cru plots, and 11 village appellations.
