Mersault, Burgundy

Marc Rougeot farms in Meursault, the spiritual home of white Burgundy, and has distinguished himself through a dual commitment to both traditional estate viticulture and a pioneering exploration of low- and zero-sulfur winemaking. Many of his cuvées are offered in both conventional and "Sans Soufre" (without sulfur) versions, giving retailers and collectors the opportunity to directly compare the effect of sulfur addition on wines from the same vineyard. His range spans the full breadth of Côte de Beaune typicity: Saint-Romain, Monthélie, village Meursault, and Premier Crus Les Charmes, as well as the Volnay Premier Cru Les Santenots. Rougeot farms biodynamically, with respect for lunar cycles and soil biology as core principles of his viticultural approach. The wines without sulfur are among the most expressive natural Burgundies available, achieving a textural vibrancy and aromatic complexity that speaks directly to the soil. His Meursault Sous La Velle is a perennial benchmark for the appellation's richness and depth.
