The estate

The Domaine Roulot, based in Meursault in Burgundy since 1820, is a world-renowned wine estate run by Jean-Marc Roulot since 1989. The son, grandson, and great-grandson of distillers, Jean-Marc Roulot perpetuates a family tradition of excellence dating back to 1866. Farming around 13–15 hectares biodynamically, the estate combines the production of exceptional Meursault with a range of fine spirits and liqueurs, with the family still serving as the beating heart of this historic activity.
