About this Item
Domaine Roulot produces some of the top Meursaults, if not some of the top white wines in Burgundy. Located in the Côte de Beaune, this small family domaine has Guy Roulot to thank for its success. Guy was also a pioneer in the region when it came to bottling single-vineyards separately. Guy passed away in 1982 and his son, Jean-Marc, left his acting career to take over in 1989. In the early 1990s, Jean-Marc steered the vineyards towards organic farming and obtained organic certification in 2013. The domaine consists of 15 hectares of village and premier cru vineyards and produces 17 different wines. Despite being one of the most sought-after producers in Burgundy, Jean-Marc’s intentions remain humble, focusing on the wines rather than expansion.

Critics Ratings
‘A ripe but attractively fresh nose features notes of green fruit, pear, apple and a pretty wisp of citrus. The mouth feel of the medium weight plus flavors is rich to the point of being lush while the sappy finish is both powerful and impressively long. This isn't particularly refined, though in fairness Porusot rarely is, but I like the complexity and overall this is really quite a good 2009.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92/100 (Nov 2016)
