Clos de Vougeot is a vineyard located in the Burgundy wine region of France. The vineyard is known for producing some of the finest Burgundy wines in the world, particularly its red wines made from the Pinot Noir grape.

The vineyard is located in the Côte de Nuits area, in the commune of Vougeot, in the department of Côte-d'Or. It is one of the largest and most famous Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy, covering an area of 50 hectares. The vineyard was first planted by monks in the 12th century, and today it is owned by the Confrérie des Chevaliers du Tastevin, a wine society founded in 1934 to promote Burgundy wines.

The soil in Clos de Vougeot is composed of limestone and marl, which gives the wines a unique character and minerality. The wines are aged in oak barrels for up to 18 months, and they are known for their rich and complex flavors, with notes of red fruit, earth, and spice.
