The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine A winemaking family rooted in Burgundy since the 13th century, the Clerget family has carried this heritage forward with dedication and passion. For nearly a decade, Domaine Yvon Clerget has been led by Thibaud, the brilliant son of the family, who has done exemplary work here.

With intelligence and patience, this exceptional winemaker crafts deeply expressive, beautifully complete wines across 6 hectares, all perfectly reflecting their terroirs—Meursault, Vougeot, Corton, Pommard, and of course the beating heart of the estate: Volnay.
Wine Corton Grand Cru Le Rognet Red 2021 lives up to its reputation with a wonderful aroma of black fruits, floral notes, accompanied by fresh and silky tannins, and a subtle touch of oak. We loved this noble material where oak never dominates; it's incredibly delicious and stands out from the often austere character of this appellation. Partial whole bunch fermentation and restrained aging play a significant role, preserving the wine's grace and fruit. Already very good, it will become even greater in a few years!
Vinification Hand-harvested. Aging for 12 to 18 months in French oak barrels.
