Description

Dive into the captivating history of Clos de Vougeot through the lens of the Ouvrard family. From 1818 to 1861, the famous Burgundy estate was owned by Jules Ouvrard, a notable figure in the Côte-d’Or and a respected name among winemakers and Burgundy wine enthusiasts. This book, authored by Pierre Garelli and published by Memodoc, offers a unique insight into this lesser-known period, drawing on previously unpublished historical documents.

Jules Ouvrard, the owner of Clos de Vougeot, also owned the prestigious Romanée-Conti and a significant portion of Chambertin. Upon his death, his nieces and nephews inherited this exceptional estate. However, to preserve the Clos de Vougeot, they were forced to sell the majority of the inheritance. Nevertheless, they continued to operate the estate for nearly thirty years, thereby maintaining the reputation of this exceptional terroir.

Until now, the history of Clos de Vougeot during this period was only accessible through old books and articles or through tedious research in public archives. This richly documented book changes the game by gathering vineyard operation accounts, management reports, and previously unpublished correspondence between the owners. It offers a new and in-depth perspective on the estate's evolution under the management of the Ouvrard family.

This book is a wealth of information for wine historians, Burgundy enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the history of great French vineyards. Through rigorous research, Pierre Garelli succeeds in reconstructing an essential period of Clos de Vougeot’s history while highlighting the challenges and successes faced by the owners of the time.

With its paperback format and weighing 260 grams, this book is easy to handle and carry. Its compact dimensions of 17 x 1 cm make it a practical reference for enthusiasts of Burgundy wine and viticultural history.

Whether you are a wine connoisseur, a history enthusiast, or simply curious, this book about Clos de Vougeot during the Ouvrard family era is a valuable addition to your library. Memodoc, the publisher, ensures the quality of the content, enriching the collection of historical and viticultural book lovers.
