Domaine Michelot

Domaine Michelot has been in the Michelot family for six generations and, having increased in size over the years, now comprises more than 19 hectares which include a number of prestigious 1er cru wines. The domaine achieved widespread recognition in the 60s under the direction of the charismatic Bernard Michelot and this spirit and tradition flourishes and grows in the hands of the current generation. The Meursault vineyards are made up of a number of “terroirs” – parcels of land with individual characteristics of soil, drainage and orientation – and their distinct personalities yield a diverse range of wines.
Very much in the old Michelot style; bags of rich, creamy fruits, honey, hazelnuts and a touch of vanilla. The acidities are refreshing and provide a perfect balance to the viscous creaminess. This is Meursault in all but name.
Fermented in one and two year old 500 litre demi-muids and aged for 11 months followed by a further 6 months in tank. A wine of great purity, it was so clear that it needed very little fining and no filtration.
