Alcohol: 12.5 %
Grape(s): 100% Chardonnay
Location: Bourgogne, Meursault, Burgundy, France
Tasting Notes: Pale gold with green glints. Citrus, white orchard fruit and a touch of hazelnut on the nose. Fresh and precise on the palate, with a mineral core, bright acidity and a clean, energetic finish that shows the Roulot style.
Notes: Grown around Meursault and fermented slowly in barrel with native yeasts, with only a small share of new oak (around 5%). Aged on fine lees for about a year before bottling, with light batonnage and no heavy extraction.
Food Pairing: Roast chicken, seared scallops, lobster, creamy mushroom dishes and aged Comté.
Winery Story: Domaine Roulot is one of Meursault's great estates. Jean-Marc Roulot took over from his father Guy in 1989 and farms the domaine with a restrained, terroir-focused approach, using little new oak to let each site speak clearly. Even the regional Bourgogne Blanc shows the domaine's precision and tension.
