The estate and the wine |
|
|
The Clerget family, rooted in Burgundy since the 13th century, has been carrying on their winemaking legacy with heart and passion. For nearly a decade now, Domaine Yvon Clerget has been under the stewardship of Thibaud, the brilliant son of the family, who is doing exemplary work.
With intelligence and patience, this exceptional winemaker crafts wines from 6 hectares that are full-bodied, expressive, and perfectly aligned with their terroirs: Meursault, Vougeot, Corton, Pommard, and of course, the heart of the estate, Volnay! |
|
| | |
|
Covering just under one hectare of very rocky soils with minimal new oak, the 2020 Red Pommard 1er Cru Les Rugiens stands out for its powerful character, featuring notes of incense, smoke, and dark fruits. This is a deep, stately wine with a rich texture, concentrated fruit core, and powdery tannins. It requires patience, as after a few years, it reveals a refined elegance and becomes more accessible. |

| | |
|
Hand harvested from 45-year-old vines. Traditional vinification. Aged in barrels with 20 to 30% new barrels. |
