The 2020 Les Luchets is a brilliantly chiseled and energetically expressive wine, balancing the warmth of the vintage with the domaine’s hallmark tension. Aromas of lemon zest, white peach, pear skin, and citrus blossom rise with purity, framed by notes of crushed stone, hazelnut, and a delicate herbal lift. On the palate, the wine is taut yet silken, offering a harmonious interplay of ripe orchard fruit and vibrant acidity anchored by a firm, limestone-driven mineral backbone. Subtle leesy nuances and light toasted hints add depth without ever compromising precision. The finish is long, clean, and elegantly saline, showcasing the clarity and quiet power that define Roulot’s style. The 2020 Les Luchets stands as a superbly balanced, vividly detailed Meursault—classic in structure, modern in finesse, and deeply expressive of its stony terroir.

Domaine Roulot is a pillar of Meursault, celebrated for its unwavering commitment to precision, purity, and terroir-forward winemaking. Under Jean-Marc Roulot’s meticulous stewardship, the estate farms organically, emphasizing low yields, soil vitality, and vineyard work of exceptional rigor. In the cellar, Roulot’s philosophy favors native-yeast fermentations, gentle pressing, and élevage in largely neutral oak, ensuring that clarity, tension, and mineral definition remain at the forefront of every cuvée. Les Luchets, a prized village-level parcel on the mid-slope, sits on stony, limestone-rich soils that give Chardonnay remarkable lift, focus, and salinity. In Roulot’s hands, this site consistently produces one of the most refined and expressive Meursault village bottlings, often rivaling Premier Crus in precision and detail.
