About the Winemaker:

Since its founding in 1930, Domaine Roulot has consistently put out some of the best (if not the best) wines in all of Meursault. Few winemakers have mastered the purity and intensity that Guy and Jean-Marc have. As time goes on, Roulot continues to set the benchmark for top-notch white Burgundy. Here’s what importer Kermit Lynch has to say about this producer:

“Guy Roulot, a legendary producer of some of the finest Meursaults, if not some of the world’s finest white wines, took his family’s small production domaine to stardom.” Following Guy’s untimely death in 1982, son Jean-Marc took the helm in 1989. Lynch continues: “Since then, Jean-Marc’s progress has brought even more notice to a domaine that had already enjoyed a great reputation. The wines of Domaine Roulot are now among the most sought after wines in all of Burgundy.  Jean-Marc has been successful in fine-tuning the domaine’s particular, stand-out style…Jean-Marc’s wines certainly express a certain depth and sumptuousness thanks to the appellation’s terroir, however his wines also show focus and restraint. Their elegance and amazing precision lend themselves to long aging in the cellars.” 

Viticulture & Vinification:
This wine comes from Jean-Marc Roulot’s négociant line of wines. It is crafted with the same meticulous attention to detail in the vineyard (organic) and cellar as his estate wines.
  • All grapes are hand-harvested and selected in the vineyard, and wines are vinified, raised, and bottled in the Roulot cellars by Jean-Marc Roulot.
  • Vineyards are farmed organically
  • The majority of vines are pruned in Guyot, with some in Cordon
  • Soils are plowed regularly
  • Yields are limited by de-budding
  • A rigorous sorting of the grapes follows the harvests

Ratings & Reviews

90-92 Points - Wine Advocate:
"A new addition to the range, the 2023 Meursault Les Clous delivers an ethereal bouquet of white flowers, citrus zest and buttery pastry, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate with good depth at the core, concluding with a mineral finish." – William Kelley (Jan 2025)

89-92 Points - Allen Meadows' BurgHound:
"An airy, cool and well-layered nose speaks mainly of the essence of just sliced pear and apple along with an array of citrus elements. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension suffusing the middle weight flavors that exude a subtle bead of minerality on the youthfully austere, long, balanced and moderately compact finale. This is an excellent Meursault villages that is well-worth considering. (Drink starting 2030)" (Jun 2025)

89-91+ Points - Jasper Morris' Inside Burgundy: 
"Mid lemon yellow. The nose shows the hillside origin and there is good tension on the palate, still in a crisper style with a touch of anis at the finish. This is a new cuvée ex Bouchard Père & Fils, and will in future be a domaine wine, but the paperwork was not ready for the 2023 vintage. Drink from 2027-2032"
