Description
The Monthélie Les Toisières from Domaine Rougeot Père & Fils originates from a climat situated right opposite Meursault, near the Premier Cru "La Taupine" of Monthélie. With a southern exposure, the vineyard benefits from excellent sunlight, favoring optimal ripeness of the grapes, giving the wine a balanced structure and good aromatic complexity.
The grapes are harvested manually and selected directly in the vineyard. Once they reach the winery, they are slowly pressed in a delicate cycle, after which the must is transferred to cement tanks for natural settling. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in oak barrels, where the wine ages for 18 months. No new wood is used to preserve the authentic expression of the terroir.
On the nose, it opens with complex notes of melon, apple, and fresh hazelnut. On the palate, it shows a round and harmonious profile, with a nice clean finish and moderate persistence reflecting the elegant and sober character of the Monthélie region.
Ideal pairing with oven-baked fish dishes, delicate risottos, or poultry in light preparations.
