About the winemaker
The Domaine Rougeot can be found in the heart of the village of Meursault. Marc Rougeot started the domain in 1975 and slowly built it up to the 13 hectares that the domain has today. The estate is situated at the foot of the Sainte Cristophe hill on the outskirts of the village of Meursault, from the vineyard on the estate you look out onto the vineyards of Monthélie. Pierre-Henri Rougeot has taken over the vinification and vineyard management from his father for several years. He changed a lot, biodynamic approach, little to no addition of sulfite and now certified organic.
