Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot

Following the sudden death of his father Guy in 1982, Jean-Marc Roulot decided to answer the call of the vineyard and the family estate of Meursault in 1989. The roots of Domaine Jean Marc Roulot are very old: Jean-Marc's paternal ancestors have had ties in wine since the 1820s while his mother, Geneviève Coche, is the cousin of the renowned Jean-François Coche-Dury. Many changes are at the initiative of Jean-Marc Roulot: conversion to organic, the expansion of the estate and a change of style of wine, finer and more precise... which after about ten years reveal all their tension and minerality. Promised a career as an actor and playwright before turning to the lights of Meursault, Jean-Marc Roulot is an artist and offers "author" wines. In 30 years, the work in the vineyards and in the cellar consecrates iconic Meursaults.
