Description

Domaine Joseph Roty has been in the same family for twelve generations, since 1710, and has one of the largest followings of any Burgundian grower. Pierre-Jean has been in charge for the last few vintages and continues to make beautifully crafted wines from some of the oldest vines in Burgundy. Old vines, along with late picking and
an approach which has not changed much in years, creates wines of remarkable character and depth. The family has always followed a low intervention approach in the vineyards and, in the cellar, everything is destemmed. The wines are bottled without fining or filtration according to the phases of the moon. From vintage to vintage,
these are some of the most sought-after wines in Burgundy developing the most wonderful aromas with exuberant blackcurrant and cherry flavours. Pierre-Jean put it nicely last year when he said, ‘we keep faith with real Burgundy!’. These 2019s (the domaine releases a year later than most growers) are yet another brilliant example of this classic style though, due to a small crop, quantities are limited.
