The Winery

Domaine Eugenie

Formed in 2006 from the respected vineyards of Domaine Rene Engel after the death of proprietor Philippe Engel, Domaine Eugenie is a modern producer located in Burgundy’s Vosne-Romanée region. The domaine is managed by Frederic Engerer who also manages Chateau Latour, and produces six wines from five appellations including Clos-Vougeot, Échezeaux, Grands-Échezeaux, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru “Aux Brûlées”, Vosne-Romanée Village “Clos d'Eugénie,” and Vosne-Romanée Village. Since 2009 many of the vineyards have begun the process of converting to biodynamic farming practices. That same year the domaine left its temporary cuverie and moved to the site of what was previously Clos Frantin in Vosne-Romanée, upgraded all of the facilities, and renamed the monopole vineyard to Clos d'Eugénie.

Tasting Notes

WA91
Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, the 2014 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from Domaine d`Eugenie certainly has one of the more sophisticated and nuanced aromatics among its peers: pure red fruit, mineral, neatly integrated oak, just a hint of rose petal emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, seductive core of red fruit. It is silky in texture and the acidity well judged with a caressing finish, although it begins to pall after a while and just feels as if it needs another trick up its sleeve. It starts really promising, up there with Etienne Grivot`s Clos de Vougeot, but then does not follow through. That said, it is still a very commendable wine. Tasted September 2017.
