Presentation
Domaine Rollin Père & Fils has been established in the heart of the village of Pernand-Vergelesses for 80 years. Each generation has sought to acquire new plots of vines to enhance and expand the family heritage. Rémi Rollin has been at the helm of the business since 2003, supported by his son Simon and daughter-in-law Caroline. Their 14 ha vineyard is spread over 4 Côte de Beaune communes: Pernand-Vergelesses, Aloxe-Corton, Chorey-les-Beaune, Savigny-les-Beaune.
Location
The vineyard plots are located on the northwest-facing slope of the Corton hill.
Terroir
The soil is extremely poor, composed of marly limestone with clay.
In the vineyard
From soil preparation to harvest, the vineyard is managed with precision: regular soil work, sustainable viticultural practices, yield control, and manual harvesting, occasionally supported by mechanical tools. These steps ensure healthy vines and optimal grape maturity.
Harvest
Harvesting is done by hand.
Winemaking
The grapes are gently pressed to preserve their aromatic finesse. After a light settling, the must ferments in tanks without added yeast, under controlled temperature. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally during the winter.
Ageing
The wine remains on its lees until spring, when it is racked and blended.
