Domaine Rougeot Pere et fils Bourgogne Chardonnay Clos des 6 Ouvrees 2020

The “Clos des 6 Ouvrées” is handpicked; the grapes are sorted in the vineyard and then at the Domaine on the sorting table. After pressing, alcoholic fermentation begins in a concrete vat. It is then pumped into French oak barrels to undergo malolactic fermentation. A small percentage of 5% new oak is used, bringing a desirable freshness. The wine matures in oak barrels for twelve months, delivering a nice textural and round body to the wine. The wine is then bottled and released one year later.
