Emmanuel Rouget is a producer of high-end Pinot Noir from some of the most sought-after vineyards in the Côte de Nuits in northern Burgundy. The top wines are made with grapes from sites along the border of Vosne-Romanée and Flagey-Echézeaux.

Rouget began working in vineyards in 1976, when he was hired by his uncle Henri Jayer, one of the most prominent and critically lauded winemakers in Burgundy. Jayer's wines have been some of the most expensive Pinot Noir expressions and the Henri Jayer Richebourg Grand Cru is easily one of the most expensive wines in the world.
