Roulot Monthelie Rouge

[John McIlwain]

Anyone have any experience with these? I've purchased the Auxey-Duresses Rouge and most of his whites before. Kinda curious. I'm eyeing a case of 2010.

Thanks for any insight.

Monthelie is a neat town. Don't know about that wine tho.

 

[Oswaldo Costa]

I assume you've seen the good write-up in wineterroirs?

 

[Cory Cartwright]

I've been impressed in the past.

 

[John McIlwain]

Thanks. Guess I'll pull the trigger and find out in 7 years or so.

aren't they really expensive, as in more than the same wine from Coche?
I could be mistaken.

 

[John McIlwain]

Zachy's has it for $43 a bottle give or take locally. I'll be getting for somewhat less than that. I haven't bought any Coche- it's out of my price range more or less and I'd rather spend that kind of scratch on other Burgundy or Barolo, fwiw. There's a lot of Fourrier or Barthod or Mascarello to be had relative to Coche.

Best,
John

Is Dom Guy Roulot ( which is what Zachys has ) the same as Jean-Marc Roulot, does he produce two different labels ?

 

[Oswaldo Costa]

Guy is the father's name, and JM kept it. It's all in the quite readable wineterroirs write-up.

 

[John McIlwain]

Bert's write up is indeed terrific.

 

[Ian Fitzsimmons]

His entries are pretty uniformly good. Class act.
