Chronicle of the Week: Domaine Michelot
Founded in Nuits-Saint-Georges in 1880, the discreet Domaine Alain Michelot is today led with panache by Élodie Michelot, Alain’s daughter.
A small parcel of only 30 ares, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru “En la Perrière Noblot” is a rare wine with a fantastic nose of hawthorn, full and generous.
Situated at an altitude of 280 meters, at the crossroads between the “Damodes” and the “Chaignots”, its very stony brown limestone terroir perfectly justifies the use of Chardonnay here.
Congratulations to Domaine #alainmichelot for its exquisite, intense and harmonious interpretation of the 2019 vintage!
