About this wine
Jean-Marc Roulot treats Aligoté with the seriousness most estates reserve for premier cru: old vines in the Meursault flats, organic farming, early picking, whole-cluster pressing, spontaneous fermentation and a year in older barrels, the same regime as the Bourgogne Blanc and the village Meursaults. 2019 gave concentration with freshness, and the wine has the extra flesh of the vintage.
Expect lemon and green apple, white flowers and a hint of honey, a taut, chalky palate, mouth-watering acidity and a long, saline finish. Drink now to 2029 with oysters, gougères, a fish in beurre blanc or a Kir royale for the lucky.
About Domaine Roulot
Domaine Roulot, in Meursault, is one of the reference white-wine estates of the Côte de Beaune. Jean-Marc Roulot, actor and vigneron, took over from his father Guy in 1989 and made the domaine's name with a style of precision and tension: early picking, organic farming, spontaneous fermentation, long élevage in barrel with little new oak, and village and lieu-dit Meursaults that age like premiers crus. The Bourgogne Blanc and the Aligoté are made with the same care and sell out on allocation every year; the Aligoté, from old vines on the flats of Meursault, is a cult bottle in its own right.
