Chateau De Rougeon
Château de Rougeon is a member of Les Aligoteurs, and Mi-Filles Mi-Raisins, a group of female growers in Burgundy that includes Amélie Berthaut (Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet) and Tomoko Kuriyama (Chanterêves).Rougeon is special for several reasons. For starters, the vineyards are all contiguous and they are situated at a high altitude (400m) on both granite and limestone. Granite is unusual in Burgundy, until you reach Beaujolais. Rougeon has Aligoté planted on it, which, combined with great farming, has made it a source of Aligoté grapes for some pretty incredible winemakers in the Côte d’Or.
