  • EYE: The wine displays a golden yellow color with green reflections.
  • NOSE: Intense and complex aromatic bouquet, with notes of citrus, pear, apple, honey, and toasted almond. Subtle hints of vanilla and brioche contribute to the oak barrel aging.
  • MOUTH: Rich and generous on the palate, with a creamy and silky texture. Flavors of citrus and white fruits harmoniously blend with notes of hazelnut, honey, and vanilla. The acidity is well-balanced, providing freshness and tension. The finish is long and persistent, with saline and mineral notes.

In short: The Meursault Blanc 2020 from Domaine Roulot is an exceptional wine, both rich and elegant, with remarkable aromatic complexity and depth of flavor. The fruity aromas and flavors blend harmoniously with the oak barrel aging notes, offering a rich and nuanced tasting experience. This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for many years.

Domaine Roulot

One of the best winemakers in Meursault

 

The Domaine Roulot, originally founded in 1830 by Guillaume Roulot, has enjoyed much fame along the years but its international reputation started during the 1950s, when another member of the family, Guy Roulot (Jean-Marc's father), progressively turned this 12 hectares vineyard of the Côte de Beaune into one of Meursault's crown jewels. His son Jean-Marc continues the legacy since 1989, seven years after Guy's passing.

Professional actor since 1983, with more than 50 movies under his belt, Jean-Marc Roulot was not initially destined to follow in his father's footsteps but, as it turned out, he has become quite the winemaker himself. Since his very first day in this new career, he decided to switch the entire estate to organic agriculture, banning pesticides and choosing to plow by hand only (he received the Demeter label in 2010).

Jean-Marc Roulot is now seen as one of the masters of winemaking in Burgundy. With a minutiae that borders on obsession, he manages to transcend Chardonnay and turn it into pure and dynamic wines, whose freshness cannot be matched. For him, grapes need to be picked at just the right time: not too early, not too late. Beyond the terroir, he is looking to hone his personal style, to "put tension back inside the wine bottle".
