About this Item

2010 Auxey-Duresses Blanc
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

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.

Auxey-Duresses is a village in Burgundy known for producing both red and white wines. Domaine Roulot's Auxey-Duresses Blanc is made from Chardonnay grapes sourced from vineyards in the region.

Critics Ratings

‘Acquired a 50-year-old vineyard in 2010 (not part of the acquisition in 2011 with Lafon). Quite rich and toasty on the nose with a strong streak of green honey. Acid seems quite low. A definite honeyed character – betrays vineyard location next to Meursault. Toast and honey. A Meursault at an Auxey price?’ Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson, 17/20 (Nov 2011))
