2024 Domaine Ballot-Millot Meursault

The 2024 Domaine Ballot-Millot Meursault is a precise, elegant expression of one of Burgundy’s most celebrated white wine villages. Known for its balance of richness and freshness, this wine reflects the finesse and depth that have made Meursault a benchmark for Chardonnay lovers for generations.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass, the wine typically shows a luminous, refined appearance. On the nose, expect classic Meursault character: ripe orchard fruit, citrus peel, white flowers, subtle hazelnut, and a gentle mineral edge. The palate is usually broad yet taut, with a layered texture, bright acidity, and a long, saline finish that keeps the wine feeling composed rather than heavy. While already attractive in its youth, Meursault of this calibre is often capable of developing additional complexity over several years, gaining notes of honey, toasted nuts, and mushroom with time.

Production
Meursault lies in the Côte de Beaune, where limestone-rich soils and a cool Burgundian climate help produce Chardonnay with both depth and precision. Domaine Ballot-Millot is known for carefully handling fruit from well-situated vineyard parcels, aiming to preserve terroir expression and varietal purity. The grapes are typically harvested by hand in Burgundy, with vinification focused on bringing out texture, balance, and site character. Fermentation and maturation often take place in oak, with careful use of barrels to add nuance without overwhelming the wine’s natural freshness.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast chicken, creamy poultry dishes, lobster, scallops, sole in beurre blanc, and fine mushroom preparations. It also works well with soft cheeses such as Comté or mature goat’s cheese. Serve chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting if the wine feels reserved on opening.

Producer
Domaine Ballot-Millot is a respected family estate in Meursault with a strong reputation for producing finely judged white Burgundy. The domaine has long been associated with purity, balance, and a clear expression of terroir, making it a sought-after name among collectors and Burgundy enthusiasts. Its wines are appreciated for combining classic Meursault richness with a disciplined, modern sense of precision.
