| Domaine Rougeot Père & Fils | France | Bourgogne - Côte de Beaune |
| Vineyard | The lieu-dit Sous la Velle is located at the foot of a hill and opposite the Chateau de Meursault. The soil in this part of the appellation is somewhat richer and has less limestone. The grapes here also tend to ripen later than in other parts of the commune. |
|---|---|
| Vinification | The grapes for this wine are handpicked and alcoholic fermentation takes place in concrete barrels. Pierre-Henri Rougeot works with large wooden barrels instead of the commonly used barriques. He prefers demi-muids and then with minimal toasting. Wine should taste like the vintage and terroir, not wood. The wine spends 15 months in wooden barrels of which some 5-10% are new barrels. |
| Vintage | 2021 |
