In 1982, the winegrowing was bought by the family Günther Reh which has other wine winegrowing throughout the world. During the last decade, the winegrowing was modernized through a vast program of technical investments. The wine making proceeds in the respect of the Burgundian tradition while calling upon the new but expressly considered techniques. The work of the vine is done uninterrupted. It is dictated by the vegetative cycle of the plant. Philosophy is based on ecology thus on the respect of natural balances. 
A true very favorite for VOUGEOT Premier Cru red Field of Perrière Monopole 2010, a great wine elegant, very elegant, all in mouth, with the leather and ripe cherry notes, slightly spiced, of a great harmony. Very beautiful 2009, with the subtle connotations of humus, blackberry and spices, all in aromas, full in mouth, delicate and powerful at the same time, of excellent evolution. The 2008 are rich with the nose, with subtle cherry connotations, humus, fleshy, matured well, with tannins present and tasty at the same time, a dense wine, of guard, of course. Very beautifulVosne-Romanée Premier Cru Les Beaux Monts 2011, associating color, fleshy and aromatic complexity, of round and dense mouth at the same time, with the persistent spice and prunenotes, a wine very scented, dense, of very good guard.
Remarkable Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Murgers Premier Cru red 2011, marked by its soil, a wine fleshy and scented, of very good mouth, with the pepper and blackcurrant connotations, combining color and matter, of a nice final spiced, excellent evolution like the 2010, very traditional and powerful, a wine of color crimson, with a dense structure, very well-balanced, with the complex nose where the blackcurrant, the violet and cinnamon prevail. 
I also liked much Chambolle-Musigny the Village 2010, of dense mouth, with quite molten tannins, the complex bouquet where intermingle with the notes of red small fruits good ripe, vanilla, humus and liquorice, all in seduction. ? VOUGEOT Les Cras Premier Cru red 2010 is very traditional, very powerful, with a smoked note, very marked black fruit aromas, a wine of great elegance, guard. ? the 2009 is a complex and well-balanced wine with the delicate and persistent finale, coloured, scented well with notes of liquorice and ripe strawberry. Exceptional Field of VOUGEOT Grand Cru red 2010, very a great wine, all in distinction, delicate but powerful, elegant, of scented mouth, of steady color, for firm and melted tannins at the same time, very structured, for the connotations of mushrooms and macerated fruits, a fleshy great wine as one needs it. The Field Saint-Denis Grand Cru red 2008, with the connotations of spices, cooked red fruits and violet, fort beautiful structure, is a very harmonious wine, of excellent guard. 
There is also this VOUGEOT Premier Cru Clos of Perrière 2011, robe crimson, with the complex connotations of morello cherry, pruneand spices, a powerful wine, with a harmonious structure, quite firm in mouth. ? If it remains about it, sink on Corton Grand Cru Les Grandes Lolières red 2009, complex with the nose as in mouth (morello cherry, spices, pepper), rich, very traditional as we like them, a wine with tannins firm and molten at the same time. 
The Winegrowing transformed part of the property into hotel, which makes it possible to reside in the middle of the vineyard, and it is quite likeable. Not the least hesitation.

At the top. The winegrowing extends on 14 ha, offering a diversity of 14 appellations of Marsannay, Carry-in Or of Coast-of-Nuits, in Pommard, in Coast-of-Beaune. Cyril Audoin, represents the fifth generation of vine growers. But, if the winegrowing reaches 14 ha today, the surface of the property, to the beginning of the year 1900, was limited to only 4 ha. The vineyard was maintained thanks to the perseverance of Marie Ragonneau, the great-grandmother of Cyril, a strong woman who knew only to preserve and maintain the vineyard, working itself with her horse and her pulverizer with back. To pay homage to him, Cyril created the vintage Marie Ragonneau besides on the Marsannay appellation. In its research of optimal quality, it also made the choice separately vinify in Marsannay appellation various worthy localities to express a typicity, a special character of it. A large work when it is known that the smallest Marsannay vintage, Charme in Prêtres, does not exceed 600 bottles! 
“With the Winegrowing, tells me Cyril Audoin, we always wanted to produce authentic wines, reflections of their soil, by respecting the natural elegance of our marvellous type of vines Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, continues Marie-Francoise Audoin. When one meets a beautiful harmony on the wines with vintages as different as 2009 and 2010, one can only be delighted, to thank the nature which allowed the Pinot Noir this perfect adaptation to our Burgundian soils and a world recognition of our wines for their constant quality. Our climates of Burgundy deserve well a classification with the world heritage of UNESCO!”
A reference with this Marsannay Les Longeroies 2010, of color ruby, with notes of violet and humus, rich and scented, of a beautiful fullness in mouth. “For this vintage 2010, Cyril specifies, a very beautiful off-season and very weak yields created a beautiful surprise with deep colors and a very good structure. The three weeks of good weather brought an excellent maturity. For Marsannay white, the 2010 are without question a very beautiful vintage, of a high degree of accuracy, an exceptional freshness of aromas with keys of white flowers and exotic fruits. Rounds and generous, they are already extremely appreciated, even if our Marsannay Blanc Champ Solomon deserves a few years in cellar.”
Beautiful 2009, rich and scented, marked by its soil, with these crystallized, combining structure and velvety, full and subtle fleshyprune notes, of guard. “The vintage 2009 is really exceptional in its balance, continues Cyril. A very beautiful sunning, spring until the harvest which began on September 13th, a sun which one finds in the wines, fruit walls a concentration, intense, silky tannins, a perfect phenolic maturity. The freshness of aromas is preserved by this balance acidity-tannin. One wants already to drink this vintage2009, even if all is joined together to make some a beautiful vintage of guard. The greediness of Marsannay fermented Marie Ragonneau invites to the pleasure of emerging some bottles, as for the Field of Roy and Les Longeroies, on condition that airing them out of carafe. One will need all the same a little patience with Les Favières and Champ Solomon so that expresses all the smoothness and the complexity of these vintages. As for our Fixin, it is in its mineral typicity, elegant with these stone notes “with rifle” characteristic of the soil. Gevrey-Chambertin 2009 offers a perfect harmony between powerfull and elegance, while in our Pommard, one finds this with dimensions charmer of the great wines of the Coast of Beaune, equipped with a tannic structure characteristic of the appellation.
The 2008, with silky and rich tannins at the same time, release an intense blackcurrant bouquet and humus, a solid wine, very traditional, typified as we like them. The 2007, silver medal Beaune 2010, robust, with firm but molten tannins, persistent in mouth, with the undergrowth and cherry connotations, mixes intensity and smoothness. All stops some, red Marsannay In Champ Solomon 2010, rich with the nose, with subtle cherry connotations, humus, fleshy, matured well, with tannins quite present and tasty at the same time, of excellent guard like this 2009, rich and persistent, with the intense bouquet of blackcurrant and humus, is a fleshy wine, very scented, very delicate, with intense savors with prevailing of ripe fruits to the palate. 
Marsannay Les Favières 2010 is a beautiful concentrated wine, with the cherry perfume and undergrowth, of a large aromatic smoothness, very good guard. ? the 2009, of nice garnet-red robe steady, is very traditional of this great vintage, with the intense and subtle nose at the same time (currant, cherry, humus), with silky tannins. Beautiful Marsannay Field of Roy red 2009, scented, with the typical notes of blackberry, beautiful structure, with tannins silky but quite present, a generous and supple wine. Pommard, having a nice bouquet (notes of bilberry and pepper), is a wine which associates color and matter, of molten and rich mouth. Taste also Gevrey-Chambertin 2010, scented (notes of blackberry and liquorice), combining roundness and powerfull in mouth, a quite traditional wine of this cordial vintage. ? Séduisant Marsannay white In Champ Solomon 2010, a wine where intermingle with the notes of finely peppered almond and heather, of tasty mouth like rosé Marsannay, all stops some, very fruity, very characteristic, all in aromas (ripe currant). Not the least hesitation.

This family winegrowing was taken again by François Bertheau in 2004. It represents the fifth generation to exploit this vineyard of 6.22 ha. The vines are 45 years old on average. The maturing is done out of barrels (including 20 to new wood 30%) for one 18 months duration, the wine, not filtered, will be marketed approximately 6 months after its setting in bottles. Grounds argilo-limestones. 
Superb Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Les Charmes 2011, colored, with spice aromas, fruits black, fleshy but delicate, full, all in nuances, a wine which fills up the mouth well, of guard. “The 2011 were marked by one early spring, a summer not particularly beautiful, and a very beautiful back season, tells us François Bertheau. These weather conditions gave very good performances, with on the other hand a vigilance with the control of the temperatures in wine making. The quantities are, with something near, similar to 2010. Although it is still a little early, this vintage 2011 appears quite well-balanced, perhaps better than the 2010, of which it seems to be first cousin with character and much of fruit, perhaps a little more steady and more tannic. It will surely be of guard. For a vine grower it is a beautiful year as we like them.”
Beautiful 2010, quite as attractive in this beautiful vintage, mixing roundness and structure, with these notes of plum, humus and cinnamon finally. ? the 2009, scented, associating richness and smoothness, concentrated and fleshy, with tannins quite present, a sure value. Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru Les Amoureuses remarkable, with tannins tasty and rich, generous, is at the same time colored and full-bodied, with this quite fleshy and attractive mouth prevailed by the stone-fruits and cinnamon. Taste Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru 2011, which is an assembly of 4 pieces, a cordial and robust wine, of color ruby, with the notes of blackberry andhumus persistent, suave and promising. Chambolle-Musigny 2010, all stops some, scented well (morello cherry, grooves), with well-balanced tannins, at the same time powerful and supple, of a beautiful final, excellent guard. Of course, not the least hesitation.
