Imagine a Bourgogne Rouge from one of Burgundy’s greatest domaines that's not only made from half-century-old vines, the vines were classified as Gevrey-Chambertin a quarter century ago.

That's why Domaine Joseph Roty’s Cuvée de Pressonnier has a cult following way out of proportion to its humble price. And in the stellar 2018 and 2019 vintages, Pressonnier easily justifies that devotion. 

At our 6-pack (4 bottles of 2018 and 2 bottles of 2019) price of $37.50 a bottle, Pressonnier is nothing short of a mind-bending bargain. 

Eleven Generations of Wisdom
Despite its incredibly modest price, Pressonnier is the culmination of the Rotys’ eleven generations of winemaking history. And, like virtually everything else from the Roty stable, it is made from seriously ancient vines.

In fact, Pressonnier was planted a half a century ago. And as recently as the 1990s, the Pressioner vines were classified as Gevrey-Chambertin. These are just two of the reasons Pressonnier towers above its peers and is one of the great bargains of Côtes de Nuits red Burgundy.

These facts are not lost on Burgundy insiders, who know this to be one of the region’s greatest values—offering the higher-level purity and depth you’d expect from a blue chip domaine like Roty. Given this, Roty’s Pressonnier has a passionate following among American Burgundy lovers, who snap up every bottle and case they can find on release.
