The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Jean-Baptiste Bouzereau has cultivated a distinct style, marked by both finesse and precision, setting a high standard for Burgundy wines.

Leading Domaine Michel Bouzereau et Fils, a 3-star estate in the RVF Guide, he expertly reveals the true identity of each terroir, employing exacting cultivation methods inspired by biodynamics.

His approach emphasizes purity and elegance, allowing the wines to express their character without excess. There's no risk of overuse of oak here—the focus is always on balance and delicacy.
Wine Marked by a beautiful mineral brilliance, the 2022 white Côte d'Or Burgundy is a delicate, fresh and precise wine, with floral and chalky tones, surrounded by beautiful bitters. Produced from vineyards in Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, it is very close to a Meursault and would fool many, with its ultra-smooth, finely acidic, long-lasting aftertaste. A sumptuous first step to reserve for the beginning of the meal. Rated 92/100 by the committee.
Vinification Hand-harvested, aged for 12 months in barrels (15% new), then 2 months in vats.
