Domaine Michelot

Domaine Michelot is a well-known estate in Meursault. Domaine Michelot has been in the Michelot family for six generations and, having increased in size over the years, now comprises 22 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. Jean-François Mestre took over from his father-in-law, Bernard Michelot. Now Jean-Francois’s son Nicolas Mestre has the reins as winemaker.

The Michelot style is elegant and quite classic; wines made with a steady hand and a good eye for the qualities of a well-made Meursault. There is an element of “old-school” Meursault in these wines, but without the pitfalls of that generous and voluminous style.

The wines are pure, focused and detailed without being filigreed or structurally powerful. These are wines with a clear hedonistic element – they simply drink well and have a lovely, classic Meursault character.
