"This 5.24-hectare climat, adjacent to the 1erscrus Epenotes and Boucherottes on the Pommard side, takes its name from the beech trees that once grew here. Rodolphe Demougeot farms a half-hectare planted 55 years ago. The result is a stunning beaune village, with an attractive garnet-red color and a cherry nose, lightly vanillinized by 12 months in barrel. The palate is full-bodied, deep, with firm but fine tannins, refreshed by a hint of acidity, before stretching into a long, liquorice finish. Character and solid potential.

Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2022) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
Although Rodolphe Demougeot has been based in Meursault since 1998, since 1992 he has been developing an estate whose 7.8-hectare heartland consists mainly of a fine representation of the Pommard and Savigny-lès-Beaune crus. The red wines, made from meticulously sorted grapes, destemmed or not, vinified in concrete vats, have an energy that makes them drinkable from a young age in a gourmet style, very well suited to the restaurant trade and to those who like to drink their wines young. As for the whites, they offer uprightness and verticality.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 15/20 (Good wine)
Domaine noté (guide 2022) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the wine:
We find the same woody signature as the other wines, with its powdery, smoky side. The fruit on the palate is full-bodied and straightforward.
About the domain :
Rodolphe Demougeot founded his domaine in 1992. His red wines are energetic and dense, and age very well. Today, they are harmonious, freed from the hard finishes that marked past vintages.
