Product Description:

"Eleven generations. All the way back to 1710. This is how deep and entangled the Roty family is with their vines and winemaking in the Côtes de Nuits. Generation number eleven is represented by the very capable Pierre-Jean Roty and his late brother, Philippe (ran the winery from 2003-2014). Both are very much like their late father, Joseph, in that they are extremely meticulous and strive to know every little thing there is to know about their parcels. How best to work them. Why they carry the names they do, etc. More noteworthy is their dedication to the philosophy that great wines come from great terroir. The Rotys have farmed organically for over 20 years but will not seek official certification any time soon. " -Importer
