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.
This is an excellent Meursault showing the distinct freshness and salinity of the 2024 vintage. It offers a complex, focused style with notes of lemon, ripe stone fruits, honeysuckle and a lovely salinity. Tighter and less tropical than a typical Michelot Meursault, it is almost Puligny-like in its balance and steeliness.
Fermented in tank and barrel, the wine sees a variety of vessels: one third in 500-litre foudres (30% new), one third in 350-litre foudres (10% new), and one third in grès pots. It is aged in barrel for 12 months, followed by six months in tank.
