2021 Rouget

Château Rouget, the great terroirs of Pomerol Located near Eglise-Clinet, Petrus and Le Gay, Château Rouget, which encompasses 42 acres today, stretches across the gentle slopes of the Pomerol plateau near the village and the old church. Two thirds of vines are located around the Estate but Château Rouget also includes beautiful plots facing Petit Village, Le Pin and Trotanoy. The 2021 vintage at Château Rouget Every vintage is unique ! After 3 sunny harvests, the 2021 vintage is characterised by a succession of unfortunate weather events and small yields. This vintage, so different from the previous ones, forced us to remain humble and to take practical decisions in a climatic emergency. Through hard work, common sense and patience, we have reached a beautiful phenolic maturity and we are delighted to see that, despite small yields, Château Rouget 2021 will be grand : lots of roundness, generous tannins and an intense ruby colour!
