Domaine Roulot, under Jean-Marc Roulot, is famed for its precise, mineral Meursault. The 2018 Villages bottling blends fruit from multiple lieux-dits on limestone-rich soils, all farmed biodynamically.

Fermented with native yeasts and aged on lees in mostly used oak, it balances the warmth of the vintage with clarity and drive. A benchmark village Meursault with structure and finesse.

The name Roulot is now a synonym for the very best wine that the village of Meursault can offer. It is rather remarkable when you consider that just 2 generations back the Roulot's were known as producers of Burgundian brandy and eau de vie. But Guy Roulot began leveraging the family's distilling success to purchase small plots of vines in Meursault and by the 1970's was known as a pioneer for producing top quality chardonnay from distinct parcels or ""lieu-dits"".

When Guy passed away unexpectedly in the early '80's his son Jean-Marc was pursuing acting in Paris. In 1989 he returned to take on the reigns of the small Domaine and in the following decades built on his fathers success so well that the wines are now extremely hard to acquire and to afford for most of us.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 90
"Pretty if restrained aromas reluctantly offer up notes of roasted hazelnut, pear and acacia blossom that are trimmed in just enough wood to notice. The sleek, intense and almost racy medium-bodied flavors possess excellent delineation that continues onto the lingering, balanced and solidly complex finale. This is a very fine Meursault villages and worth checking out." -Allen Meadows

Robert Parker

RP 90
"The 2018 Meursault Village is showing nicely out of the gates, bursting with aromas of crisp orchard fruit, white peach, blanched almonds and wheat toast. Medium-bodied, elegantly textural and precise, it's succulent and delicately fleshy, with lively acids and a nicely defined, mouthwatering finish. This will offer a broad drinking window." -William Kelley
