Domaine Roulot Bourgogne Blanc 2024

Roulot is one of the few Burgundy domaines whose wines sell out before they're even bottled, and the Bourgogne Blanc is the easiest way into that cellar. It's no anonymous regional blend: Roulot sources this cuvée roughly half from Puligny-Montrachet and half from Meursault, from seven lieux-dits including Durots, Dressoles, Herbeux and Grandes Coutures, with vines averaging about 35 years old. (Think about what a label that says "Meursault" or "Puligny" usually costs.) The domaine doesn't cut corners on its entry-level wine either. It is fined with only tiny amounts of casein and bentonite and very lightly filtered before bottling. The farming is certified organic, and Jean-Marc Roulot's wines carry the same precision and energy as the man himself. Don't wait on it, because bottles from this house don't stay on shelves for long.
