The name Antonin Rodet has been rhyming with Mercurey in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise since 1875, when the house was founded by Antoine Rodet, known as Antonin. The Clos Rodet, a 17th Century bourgeois mansion situated in the heart of the village, is embodying the House’s historical heart, cellar and values.
For decades, the visionary Rodet family did not hesitate to invest in one of the oldest terroirs in Burgundy and contributed to the business development of the House, brought the Rodet signature into international markets and enhanced its reputation to become a reference in Mercurey and far beyond the native region.

Grape variety

100 % Pinot Noir.

Tasting notes

Visual: shining bright ruby red color, with violet hues.
Nose: aromas of small red and black berries (strawberry, blackberry) and spicy notes (liquorice, pepper).
Palate: power and balance in the mouth. A great Burgundy with fruity flavours, firm structure and silky tannins.

Wine and food pairing

Massive, yet velvet-smooth, the tannins of gevrey-Chambertin confer power and solidity to the build and contribute to its great longevity. This is a wine for meat-eaters, its gamery notes giving it a particular affinity for game, whether furred or feathered, especialy when the wine is more fully evolved. It also goes superbly with rib steak, lamb (braised or in brown sauce), and all musky, solidly fibrous meats, that need time in the mouth to extract all their savour.It is at ease with all strong cow-milk cheeses (Epoisses, Ami du Chambertin or Cîteaux).
