Domaine Roulot, while primarily celebrated for its white wines, also produces limited quantities of refined red Burgundies. The Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Rouge showcases Jean-Marc Roulot’s commitment to expressing the purity and character of this appellation's Pinot Noir.
- WINEMAKER: Jean-Marc Roulot
- FARMING: Certified organic, with biodynamic practices in the vineyard
- VARIETY: 100% Pinot Noir
- TERROIR: Sourced from premier cru vineyard sites in Auxey-Duresses, characterized by limestone-rich soils that impart structure and minerality to the wine
- VINIFICATION: Hand-harvested, fermented with indigenous yeasts in traditional open-top fermenters, with gentle extraction to maintain elegance
- AGING: Aged for 12-15 months in French oak barrels, with about 15% new oak to subtly enhance complexity without overpowering the fruit
- TASTING NOTES: Aromatic and nuanced, with bright red fruit notes of cherry and raspberry, intertwined with floral and earthy undertones. Fine tannins and vibrant acidity lead to a well-structured, elegant finish
