Background

Our vineyards are cultivated with great care and diligence, with the same regard for the environment and micro fauna. Our yields are low (35-45 hl/ha depending on the vintage), thanks to low organic amendments, short pruning, extensive de-budding in the spring, and green harvesting in July. Meix Foulot was the first domaine in Mercurey to control its yields through green harvesting. Our Mercurey wines are honest and direct, with the pure fruit expression of the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. They are concentrated and fruity in order to give great pleasure throughout their life. They also possess true ageing potential.
But above all, they remain the perfect reflection of their terroirs, that unique Burgundy magic.

Tasting Notes

Pale yellow in colour with green tints in its youth.  On the nose, the wine shows notes of citrus with scents of white flowers and stone fruit (pears, peaches), sustained by lovely minerality. This wine is elegant, fruity and very subtly fat.  Good balance showing the power of a white wine capable of ageing.
