Domaine Rougeot - Meursault "Sous la Velle" 2023

Domaine Rougeot - Meursault "Sous la Velle" 2023This Meursault Sous la Velle is refined, generous and complex. Domaine Rougeot has a long history of making superb white wines out of the famed village of Meursault. The Sous la Velle climat is located at the foot of the Meursault hill opposite the Chateau de Meursault. In that part of Meursault, we find much richer soils and less limestone. These grapes usually ripen later than the grapes from the vineyards located on the slope of the Meursault hill.
