Domaine Matrot is one of the oldest estates in Meursault, located in Côte de Beaune in Burgundy, with roots dating back to 1835. Today, it’s run by the sixth generation of the family, with Thierry and Pascale Matrot at the helm alongside their daughters, Adèle and
Elsa. The domaine boasts some of the most significant and extensive vineyard holdings in Meursault, with vines averaging over 30 years of age, cultivated organically since 2000. Domaine Matrot is renowned for its meticulous techniques at every stage of production,
with deep respect for Meursault’s terroir and a commitment to sustainable practices.
Meursault 2022 Domaine Matrot blends Chardonnay grapes from 12 different plots, with an average vine age of 35 years. Harvesting is done by hand, only when the grapes reach optimal ripeness. They’re then gently pressed, and the finest portion of the must is transferred to French oak barrels (1st to 5th use), where fermentation begins using ambient yeasts. After fermentation, the wine remains on its lees for 12 months, gaining complexity and a creamy texture. Before bottling, it spends an additional 3 months in stainless steel
tanks for natural stabilization, preserving its finesse and layered character.
Meursault 2022 Domaine Matrot embodies everything that has made Meursault a global reference point for Chardonnay—and all the reasons why sommeliers and collectors adore it worldwide. If you love expressive white wines with character, depth, finesse, and
impeccable balance, this is one to try.
