The Story

The hard Comblanchian limestone which disappears deep underground around Nuits-Saint-Georges reappears here where, as one moves southward, red wines give way to whites. Nowhere in the Côte de Beaune does the Chardonnay grape do better than it does here. Along the village streets are a succession of little houses belonging to the vineyard workers, mixed with more imposing dwellings. The stone-work on the 53 metre-high church tower looks like it...

Vintage 2004

2004 VINTAGE in Burgundy

2004 will be remembered as the year of wonderful surprises. The month of September was hot, dry and sunny contributing to an excellent harvest which in turn gave birth to fruity, elegant wines.

Written Notes

The first magnum of Roulot was a 2004 Roulot Meursault Charmes. Jean-Marc shared with us that he was a sixth generation winemaker, and 1989 was his first, official vintage where he was in charge. 2004 was a ‘challenging vintage’ per Jean-Marc, but the end result was ‘energy and high acidity.’ The Old Dirty Bastard found the ’04 beautiful, or perhaps he was commenting on the young waitress that just passed by. The Charmes did have a fantastic nose, very aromatic with its butter, spice, minerals and smoke. It was so ’04, so complex, so delicious and so easy to drink. There was a ‘seamlessness of flavors,’ a ‘form of polish’ and a purity here that was bordering on divine. My only question about the wine is whether it will ever get better; that goes for ’04 whites in general (95M).
