2023 Domaine Rougeot Meursault Sous la Velle Sans Soufre, Cote de Beaune, France
$150.00
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. The fruit is hand-harvested and direct pneumatic pressed in whole bunches untrimmed, then cold settled for 2 days. Alcoholic fermentation with native yeasts and malolactic fermentation take place in barrels followed by a long maturation in oak barrels for 20 months without battonage. Bottled unfined and unfiltered without additional SO2.
