In the 1920s, the marriage of Eugène Mongeard to Edmée Mugneret brought together vineyards from both families, increasing the size of the domaine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1945, their son Jean began estate-bottling the wine for the first time and releasing it commercially under the name Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret. Jean had taken over the estate and at 16 was selling its grapes to esteemed producers such as Marquis d'Angerville and Henri Gouges. It was on Gouges' advice that Jean transitioned to bottling the wine himself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe estate is now one of the larger properties and has 30 hectares (75 acres) of vines in over 30 different vineyards, with an average vine age of more than 40 years. The most sought-after wines in Mongeard-Mugneret's catalog are six grand cru-designated wines made from parcels in four esteemed vineyards: Échezeaux, Grands Échezeaux, Clos de Vougeot and Richebourg.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret","offers":[{"title":"750 mL","offer_id":43102105174208,"sku":"DMM-C17-750","price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/4310\/4704\/products\/DomaineMongeard-MugneretVougeot-AngryWineMerchant.jpg?v=1660830201","url":"https:\/\/angrywinemerchant.com\/products\/domaine-mongeard-mugneret-clos-de-vougeot-2017","provider":"Angry Wine Merchant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
