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 17^th 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.

100% Pinot Noir.

Colour: Dark purple.

Bouquet: Powerful, with aromas of ripe red and black berries, spices, pepper, leather, earth, toast, vanilla and incredible complexity,

To better appreciate its typical finesse and elegance, this great wine deserves a few years in the cellar, with an ageing potential of over 10 years.

The vineyards of Vosne-Romanée, just to the north of the town of Nuits-Saint-Georges, cover an area of 165 hectares.

Vosne-Romanée is the appellation to the south of the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, whose grands crus include the most fabulous and famous of wines: Romanée Conti, La Tâche, Romanée Saint-Vivant… It is probably in this Burgundian village that Pinot Noir fully expresses its most beautiful attributes.

- Limestone mixed with clayey marl.
- South-east and east facing.
- Gentle slope at the bottom of the hillside, more pronounced above the Premier and Grand Crus.
- Altitude between 260 and 330 metres.

Hand-picked, the grapes are first sorted in the vineyard and then in the winery. The grapes are then destemmed and crushed before being put into thermo-regulated vats. Vatting lasts 20-25 days. Vinification begins with cold maceration (8°-10°C) for 5-6 days, followed by fermentation with the introduction of Burgundy yeasts, with daily pumping over and punching down of the cap. The wine is aged for 12-15 months in barrels (30% new oak).
