RATINGS

96The Wine Advocate

...big and quite rich. Layers of fruit totally cover the palate in this textured, seamless Charmes... remains graceful and round through to the finish. This may need a number of years to show at its best, but it is stunningly beautiful.

91-94Stephen Tanzer

Discreet aromas of crushed stone and musky spices; pure and subdued. Then very rich and tactile in the mouth, with a distinctly penetrating character to the lemon, ginger and mineral flavors. I love the combination of intense fruits...

91-94Burghound.com

...excellent concentration and superb intensity plus the overall sense of balance seems almost perfect on the hugely long finish. Note that I have estimated where I believe that this will come in score-wise...

PRODUCER

Domaine Roulot

Domaine Roulot is a 25-acre estate in Meursault. Founded in 1830 by Guillaume Roulot, it was run for many years in the 20th century by Guy Roulot, a legendary maker of outstanding Meursaults. He was the first in his family – and one of the first in the district – to bottle his own wines. The estate is now run by his son Jean-Marc, who continues to champion single-vineyard bottlings and to make noteworthy wines. Domaine Roulot has Premier Cru parcels in Meursault and Monthelie. Clive Coates has written that the domaine “has long been one of the superstars of the commune…Jean-Marc has great talent…The wines are very pure and elegant…”

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Beaune, Meursault, Les Charmes

Les Charmes, at 78 acres, is Meursault’s largest Premier Cru vineyard. Like its neighboring Premier Crus, Les Genevrieres and Les Perrieres, is is south of the commune of Meursault and very close to Puligny-Montrachet. Since Meursault lacks a Grand Cru, Meursault’s reputation for excellence is based on the Premier Crus, particularly the whites. Les Charmes abuts Puligny-Montrachet. Burgundy writer Clive Coates writes that “there is an attractive, soft flowery character to a Charmes: peach blossom, delicately nutty, gently honeyed.”

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay, 1er (Premier) Cru

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
