Meursault 1er Cru Charmes Rougeot Père et Fils 1976

The wine

Family domain Marc Rougeot here crafts a Meursault premier cru that comes from a parcel located south of Meursault, near Puligny. The domain is dedicated to attentive growing methods. The work carried out in the vineyard is thus organic, with Ecocert certification obtained in 2017. Work in the winery continues with this respect for the raw material. The vinification is gentle so the grape can express the quintessence of its terroir. Only a small amount of sulphur is added, again with precision in mind.
This is a deep and complex wine with a yellow-gold hue. It gives off notes of crisp, white fruit, white and yellow flowers, fresh almond, and some more exotic hints. Its palate marries minerality and complexity. We recommend savouring this cuvée with dishes that are equally unctuous such as salmon gravlax or mashed potato with cream and butter.
