Pierre-Henri Rougeot is a young vigneron with generations of family roots in the town of Meursault. He grew up learning farming and the craft of winemaking with his father and by studying in Beaune. In 2017, he decided to add one more activity, a small negoce where he could make wines his way. The fruits come from his family estate, vineyards which are farmed organically. The production is really small, one barrel here of one cuvee, two over there, max 4 barrels of Gevrey. Pierre-Henri makes his wines with little intervention meaning: no SO2 until bottling, no fining and no filtration. The reds are macerated with whole-cluster and age in neutral barrels; the whites are pressed directly in barrels, with no battonage and aging sur lees.

This cold lieu-dit below Meursault is planted on marls. Their plot is adjacent to Coche-Dury’s Bourgogne Rouge but Pierre-Henri claims that until climate change the site wasn’t capable of much. It is planted to Pinot Droit, a biotype with particularly erect shoots. The wine ferments as whole clusters for two to three weeks with minimal cap management, only gentle pumpovers. It is then pressed to barrel (maximum 10% new) for élevage. It is bottled unfined, unfiltered, and without SO2
