Tasting Notes
This Bourgogne Passetoutgrain is fruity with hints of spices.
There is nothing more delicious than the Bourgogne Passetoutgrain. The vineyard is co-planted with Gamay (1/3) and Pinot Noir (2/3) in Meursault, on the Volnay side. The vineyard is strictly managed to yield fewer grapes of stunning concentration. Every steps of the way are identical to the premier cru made at this Domaine. The nose is blooming with notes of fresh cherry, five spices, strawberry and a hint of rose petal. The palate has a round attack, lively cherry coming through with silky, firm tannins with a clean and delicate finish. It can be paired with Charcuterie, roast pork, lamb and cow cheeses.

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
