2023 Domaine Rougeot Meursault Sous la Velle, Cote de Beaune, France
$145.00
Biodynamic. 100% Chardonnay. Sourced from over 55-year-old vines on a 2.5 hectare “Sous la Velle” climat. The vineyard is located at the foot of the Meursault hill, opposite the Chateau de Meursault. It means “Under the village”. In that part of Meursault, we find much richer soils and less limestone. Hand-harvesting, direct pneumatic pressing in whole bunches untrimmed, cold settling for 2 days, alcoholic fermentation with native yeasts and malolactic fermentation in barrels. A long maturation in oak barrels for 20 months with no batonnage. Unfined and unfiltered with 25ppm SO2 at bottling.
