Domaine Mestre 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.
The wine offers notes of honey, baked apple strudel, racy lime curd and fresh acidity, all balanced by a tight minerality that adds to the wines presence and structure. This is a great intro to this fine appellation.
A great match with chicken with wild mushroom and bacon stuffing.
Matured in 15% new oak, a mix of 225lt and 600lt Demi–Muids.
