Emmanuel Rouget is the nephew of the late Henri Jayer, the most legendary winemaker in modern Burgundy, and the heir to his uncle's vineyards and techniques. This village Nuits-Saint-Georges is drawn from four parcels in the northern half of the appellation, the side that drinks more like Vosne. Rouget keeps faith with the Jayer playbook: punishingly low yields, full destemming, a long cold soak, and patient aging in barrel. The result is a Nuits that trades the appellation's typical brawn for perfume, silk, and clarity.
