Domaine Rouget 22 Bourgogne Passetoutgrains
Description: | It is a blend of Pinot Noir grapes and Gamay noir jus blanc. This makes it unique among non-effervescent Bourgogne. Combining two such different grapes takes considerable skill. The blending takes place when the grapes are loaded into the vats - it is not a blend of different wines. At least one third of the grapes must be from the Pinot variety. The area of production is the same for all Bourgogne. The appellation dates from 1937.The wines are mostly reds and for the very rare exception, ross. A light, fresh, well-fruited wine with immediate appeal. If its vivacity is due to the Gamay grapes, it is the Pinot grapes which lend it its mellow serenity. The attack is lively and strong on fruit. Well-textured, it develops aromas of underbrush, game, and brandied cherries. |
