The Petit Maupertuis lieu-dit lies on the Flagey-Echézeaux side of Vougeot, just below Grands Echézeaux. Domaine François Lamarche and members of the Gros family also farm vines in this terrific terroir. It consistently produces a Clos de Vougeot with far greater finesse than is usually associated with this historic site. This wine comes from a 0.15-hectare parcel of old vines (60 years) situated beside the Clos. Like last year, the wine vinified with 80% bunches and was raised in a single, new 456-litre barrel previously used to ferment the whites.
