Good to Know: Laurent Ponsot SAS, the foremost producer in this region, cultivates one hectare of land while also sourcing grapes from other producers. This prestigious appellation is renowned for its scarcity and holds great pride for its makers.
The wines display a lavish, smooth, and rounded character. While they are enjoyable without excessive aging, they also possess the ability to mature gracefully over time, depending on the specific vintage. Rather than cherries, the distinctive aroma carries notes of gooseberry.
The pairing of a splendid Bresse poultry with Griotte wine is truly captivating. The harmony between the two would be flawless.
The name of this wine originates from the Burgundian term "ruotte," meaning "stream." Remarkably, at the top of the vineyard, a natural spring emerges, enriching the soil of these remarkable vines.
