Rating: Gault Millau 17.5/20
“This wine, with its firm yet dense texture, is one to look forward to. The nose is elegant, with just a hint of oak, allowing floral notes and raspberry to shine through, enhanced by subtle spices. ” (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau). Classified as a “tête de cuvée” as early as 1855 by Dr. Lavalle, the Rugiens-Hauts vineyard is undoubtedly one of the most renowned in Pommard...

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune-based wine merchant, founded in 1731, owns more than 142 plots across 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate wine-growing heritage allows Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year, with the majority of production coming from purchased grapes for the grand crus and from carefully selected musts for the whites other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both whites and reds in recent vintages.
