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 normally associated with this historic site. This wine comes from a 0.15-hectre parcel of old vines (60 years), situated right beside the wall of the clos. It produced very little wine in 2021 and we have only received a single box. The wine was vinified with 80% whole bunches this year and raised in a single, new 456-litre barrel previously used to ferment the whites.
