Domaine Rouget
The Emmanuel Rouget estate is based in Flagey-Échezeaux, in the Côte de Nuits. It cultivates plots located notably in Vosne-Romanée, Échezeaux, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Savigny-lès-Beaune, with a range extending from regional appellations to grands crus. Having been passed down from Henri Jayer to Emmanuel Rouget, the estate is now run by the Rouget family, with Nicolas in charge of the vineyards and Guillaume of the cellar.

Histoire du domaine
Originally trained as a tractor mechanic, Emmanuel Rouget joined Henri Jayer, to whom he is related, in 1976. He then worked in the latter’s vineyards and gradually learnt how to manage the vineyard and the winemaking process. At the same time, he worked as a sharecropper on family vineyards, notably in Échezeaux and Vosne-Romanée. In the mid-1980s, he set up his own estate and winery in Flagey-Échezeaux, and began marketing wines under his own name. From 1996 onwards, Henri Jayer gradually transferred his vineyards to him. When Henri Jayer retired in 2001, all of these vineyards, including the Vosne-Romanée Cros Parantoux Premier Cru, came under the control of Emmanuel Rouget. Nicolas Rouget officially joined the estate in 2008 and took charge of vineyard management. Guillaume Rouget, who trained in viticulture in Beaune, has been responsible for the cellar and winemaking since 2011.
