Tasting Notes
Domaine Rougeot has a long history of making superb white wines out of the famed village of Meursault. The “Les Grandes Gouttes” climat is located in the southern part of Meursault, next to Puligny-Montrachet. Whilst the vineyard did not qualify to be a village appellation, it makes a great regional appellation.
The wine has a subtle nose of white acacia flowers, fresh almonds and a hint of zest. It’s perfect to open when it’s young, in its first one to four years. It goes well with cured meat such as prosciutto or scallops with creamy sauce. - Importer Note
The Rougeot family has produced wine for five generations on appellations including Meursault-Charmes, Meursault “Sous la Velle”, Meursault “Monatine”, Volnay-Santenots, Pommard “Clos des Roses”, Monthélie “Les Toisières”, Saint-Romain “La Combe Bazin”, and regional appellations Bourgogne Chardonnay and Bourgogne Pinot Noir.
Producer and owner Marc Rougeot, now alongside his sons Pierre-Henri and Alexandre, energetically continue the family tradition with a mixture of modern, organic and traditional processes that get the best out of every vintage. The Domaine is going to be fully certified organic farming in 2018.
In recent times, the Domaine has significantly developed the quality of their reds and as a result they have reached new heights. They are defined by elegance, silkiness and stunning subtle fruit.
The whites at Domaine Rougeot are refined, generous and seductive. They celebrate the famed qualities of the region; evoking the tastes of the beautiful Côte de Beaune. - Importer Note
