Information
Situated at Meursault, the Domaine Gaunoux covers 10 hectares and is managed by François and his daughter Claudine. The Gaunoux family arrived in the Côte d'Or several centuries ago (Henri Gaunoux, François' father, was a renowned winemaker at Pommard). The vineyard covers various prestigious appellations including Meursault, Pommard, Volnay, Beaune and Puligny-Montrachet, which are mainly Premiers Crus, and even a monopoly for Meursault Le Clos de Tavaux.
Les Rugiens is one of the Pommard appellation's most sought-after premier crus. Domaine Gaunoux has produced a superb interpretation of it. It is a Pommard with a spicy nose and a full-bodied palate. The tannins will require a few years to soften and reveal a highly refined structure.
