Vintage Character Domaine Pierre-Henri Rougeot Gevrey-Chambertin 'En Reniard' 2022 is a Village lieu-dit Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits, drawing its identity from a named parcel rather than a generic village blend. The 2022 vintage in Burgundy is widely regarded as strong: a warm, dry growing season delivered generous ripeness, yet timely conditions preserved enough freshness to keep the wines balanced and precise. In Gevrey-Chambertin, this combination often translates into depth without heaviness, and the wine’s site expression is shaped by the appellation’s stony, well-drained soils, which help produce Pinot Noir of structure, mineral tension, and savory nuance.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing The profile leans classically Gevrey, with black cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and pomegranate on the nose, followed by hints of clove, sandalwood, and a faint earthy, stony note. On the palate it is medium- to full-bodied, with lively acidity, fine but present tannins, and a core of red and dark berry fruit framed by subtle spice and gentle oak. The finish is persistent and quietly savory, suggesting that a short decant can help the wine unfold. Pair it with duck breast with cherry jus, roast quail with herbs, or mushroom risotto.
Winery Background Based in Meursault, Domaine Pierre-Henri Rougeot is a family estate that has gained a following for transparent, terroir-led Burgundy and a thoughtful low-intervention philosophy. Pierre-Henri Rougeot has pushed the domaine toward organic farming and careful, largely hands-on vineyard work, with an emphasis on harvesting healthy fruit and letting each parcel speak clearly. In the cellar, the approach favors restraint over makeup, using gentle extraction and measured oak so texture and site character remain at the forefront. That combination of artisanal scale, sensitivity to place, and confident minimalism gives the domaine a distinctive voice across both the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits.
