Saint-Romain is a village appellation in the Côte de Beaune, and La Combe Bazin is Domaine Rougeot's oldest vineyard here — planted in the 1920s at around 400 metres altitude on pure limestone. Facing Sous le Château, this elevated site produces wines with an intensity and mineral drive that lend an almost Premier Cru quality to a village with no officially classified Premier Cru vineyards.
Made without added sulphur, the Chardonnay is fermented with native yeasts and aged in barrel without bâtonnage, fining or filtration, as is standard across Pierre-Henri Rougeot's biodynamic domaine. The result is dense, tightly wound and deeply mineral — the most serious white in the Rougeot range outside Meursault.
