About
the Producer: The Rodier Family was a well-established
family in Dijon. At the beginning of the 20th century, Etienne
Rodier established himself as a wine-merchant. Etienne had a fine
palate and became highly respected in Burgundy . He died fairly
young and his son, Camille Rodier, who created the famous Confrerie
des Chevaliers du Tastevin , took over. The wines from Etienne Rodier
are famous for their elegance and their finesse.
As reflected by the worldwide recognition their wines routinely
receive, their passion for viticulture and winemaking continues
undiminished in the current generation.

delightful.
