Domaine Jean Marc Roulot: history and quality wines


Jean-Marc Roulot, the owner of the eponymous domaine, located in the heart of Beaune, decided not to pursue his acting career to take up his family legacy. This choice has enabled him to bring international recognition to the domaine, while at the same time ensuring the success of his wines at auction. The estate produces one of the Côte de Beaune's three most prized brands of white Burgundy. Discover the history of the domaine, its cuvées and its best wines in this guide.

History of Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot


The history of this exceptional 15-hectare estate dates back to the 18th century. Indeed, the Roulot family had already been in the village since 1789. But it was towards the end of the 50s that Guy Roulot (1929-1982) and his wife Géneviève had the idea of realizing their vision for the estate, while increasing the size of the vineyards. At the time, the estate had just joined the elite in Burgundy wine-making. Following the tragic death of his father, the heir, Jean-Marc Roulot, initially took some time to take the reins of the estate. The reason was that he was heavily involved in his acting career and didn't have the time to run the family estate. Jean-Marc loved the theater and trained at the Paris Conservatoire. A relative, Frank Grux, managed the estate from 1984 to 1989. It was in 1989 that Jean-Marc's dormant passion for viticulture was reawakened, and he decided to continue his father's work by taking over with Michèle. His first instinct was to implement a qualitative restructuring process by buying and selling vineyards. This enabled him to acquire the Narvaux, Clos de Bouchère, Clos de la Baronne and Clotot vineyards. Thanks to his license to purchase grapes, he is also able to produce wines for the wine trade, when the quality of the grapes is favorable. In this way, he produced famous eaux-de-vie and liqueurs using local produce such as pears and apricots. There are 17 cuvées in all, of which only 2 are red. Some of these cuvées receive less media coverage than others, but connoisseurs appreciate them for their precise, racy style and their ability to grow with age.

Quality of Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot wines and winemaking process


The estate's 15-hectare vineyards have been farmed organically since 1999. Most of the vines are Chardonnay, but there is also some Pinot Noir for the red wines. The calcareous-clay and rocky nature of the soil gives the crus good ageing potential. To produce silky, full-bodied wines with good acidity, Jean-Marc Roulot chooses not to wait until the grapes are too ripe to harvest them. They are then subjected to a rigorous selection process before undergoing alcoholic or malolactic fermentation. The wines are then aged in stainless steel vats for 6 months and in oak barrels for 12 months, to polish and round out the tannins and preserve the purity of the juice. The domaine stands out for its ability to produce crystal-clear wines without compromising the quality and richness of flavors and aromas. It produces appellations such as Bourgogne Aligoté, Bourgogne Chardonnay, Village d'Auxay-Duresses, Mersault village, Mersault Meix-Chavaux, Mersault Luchet, Mersault Perrières and more.
Domaine Roulot is a renowned Burgundy wine and brandy producer, headed by Jean-Marc Roulot. They also produce apricot, lemon and pear liqueurs. They practice organic farming and their lemon liqueur, "Citron du Roulot", is highly appreciated.

Overview of estate wines


The estate's wines are known for their purity, floral and mineral nose, with a beautiful attack on the palate and an incredibly long, acidic finish. But as one of the most important in the Mersault appellation, the style can also vary from vintage to vintage. In any case, the estate's young wines have the capacity to age gracefully
-Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot Aligote 2015: a white Burgundy that already seems to be in place, so much so that it offers perfect balance after decanting for half an hour. The nose reveals pretty notes of hazelnut, flowers, lime and unripe tropical fruit. The palate benefits from white and green fruit flavors with a hint of acidity. The whole ends with a short finish. This wine is perfect for an aperitif with friends, or even for everyday drinking. But it also has good cellaring potential. This wine is in the same price range as Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot Auxey Duresses Rouge 1er cru. This is a smooth, expressive red wine with pleasant aromas and a long aftertaste.
-Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot Mersault Bouchères 2016: a white premier cru with a lemon color and delicate, well-defined aromas. After an hour's decanting, it unfurls notes of peach, grapefruit, apricot, toast and walnut. The acidity is remarkable, with a long finish. A nectar of the gods that can reach its full potential after two or three decades. A wine on special offer for collectors and connoisseurs.
-Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot Mersault Clos de Bouchères 2012: a powerful, rich white 1er cru for the 2012 vintage. After decanting for around twenty minutes, it reveals fruity aromas, fresh citrus, herbaceous notes and creamy minerals. The palate has ripe fruit flavors with a generous body. This is the type of wine that should enhance your table for special occasions. Alternatively, if you want to impress your guests, opt for the fabulous Domaine Jean-Marc Mersault les Charmes 2016. Another white 1er cru, a warm vintage, very beautiful, very powerful, dense and ample with impressive length.
-Domaine Jean-Marc Roulot Mersault Perrières 2008: A vintage white 1er cru salivating in all its splendor and potential. A ripe, well-balanced wine with exceptionally rich aromas and flavors representing the power of a Mersault combined with an astonishing minerality due to the singularity of the climate. A rare find on special offer on this site, to be recommended to lovers of elite wines.
