Emmanuel Rouget 為布爾岡傳奇釀酒大師 Henri Jayer 的外甥。他自 1976 年起追隨舅父學藝，於 1980 年代逐步接管家族葡萄園，並於 1985 年自立門戶。Rouget 延續 Henri Jayer 極低產量、低溫浸皮及高比例新桶陳年的哲學，配合嚴格選果，充分展現 Pinot Noir 的純淨果香、絲滑質感與卓越陳年潛力。
坐落於 Richebourg 特級園上方的 Cros Parantoux，是極具傳奇色彩的一級園。這片貧瘠石灰岩坡地曾一度荒廢，後由 Henri Jayer 耗費多年重新開墾。極薄表土下緊貼堅硬石灰岩底岩，加上較高海拔帶來的涼爽微氣候，造就非凡的集中度、鮮明礦物感與張力。不少收藏家與評論家視之為足以媲美，甚至超越部分 Grand Cru。

百合般華麗的花香，交織黑醋栗、覆盆子、冬青果與清涼薄荷。100% 全新橡木桶帶來雲呢拿與樹脂氣息，與利口酒般濃郁的黑果及明亮的紅加侖子、蔓越莓乾融為一體。活力四射、層次豐富，白堊土、礦石、海鹽與微量碘感，巧妙地平衡了其甜美而又酸爽的果香。陳年潛力極佳，足可優雅發展至少 12 年以上。（評於 2010 年）
Emmanuel Rouget is the nephew of legendary Burgundian winemaker Henri Jayer. Having trained under his uncle since 1976, he gradually took over the family vineyards in the 1980s before establishing his own domaine in 1985. Rouget continues Jayer's philosophy of ultra-low yields, cold pre-fermentation maceration and high proportions of new oak, combined with rigorous fruit selection to produce Pinot Noir of remarkable purity, silky texture and outstanding ageing potential.
Located directly above Grand Cru Richebourg, Cros Parantoux is one of Burgundy's most legendary Premier Cru vineyards. Once abandoned, this barren limestone slope was painstakingly reclaimed by Henri Jayer. Its thin topsoil, hard limestone bedrock and cool elevated site give rise to wines of exceptional concentration, mineral depth and tension. Many collectors and critics regard it as a vineyard capable of rivaling, or even surpassing, certain Grand Crus.

Tasting Notes:
(Robert Parker Wine Advocate: 93-94)
Lily-like, decadent floral perfume, cassis, framboise, holly berry, and mint hover spirituously over the glass. Vanilla and resin hints for the (100%) new wood mingle with liqueur-like black fruits as well as pungently invigorating red currant and dried cranberry. Here is the vibratory, interactive intensity and complexity one derives from the best young wines of its vintage, with chalk, stone, salt, and iodine all serving to set-off the wine’s candied yet acidulated fruit character. This should intrigue and delight for a dozen or more years. (Issued in 2010)
