Description

Overview & Provenance

The 2021 Domaine Roulot Les Vireuils Meursault is a chiseled, cool-climate Burgundy from one of the highest parcels in the village. Perched near the top of the slope on poor, stony limestone soils, this lieu-dit delivers remarkable energy and focus. As a result, Jean-Marc Roulot crafts a wine celebrated for its laser-like purity and brisk mineral tension.

The cool 2021 growing season returned Burgundy to a classic profile defined by low alcohol, bright natural acidity, and transparent aromatics. In addition, Roulot’s meticulous cellar work avoided heavy extraction to showcase the site’s rocky terroir. Therefore, this youthful vintage delivers vibrant energy and mouthwatering freshness.

Tasting Profile & Sensory Character

Aromatics: First, aromas of green apple, lime zest, and white grapefruit lead the bouquet. Soon after, notes of gunflint reduction, wet river stones, white flowers, and ginger emerge in the glass.
Palate: In addition, the palate strikes with piercing clarity, taut focus, and electric acidity. Saline minerals and crisp orchard fruit coat the tongue through a crystalline, chalky finish.

Service & Culinary Pairings

Serving Suggestions: First, pour at cellar temperature (50°F–54°F / 10°C–12°C) in wide stemware. Next, decant for 45 minutes to let its tightly wound citrus core open up.

Recommended Pairings: Because of its high acidity and dry mineral cut, this white Burgundy matches delicate seafood:

Raw oysters or fresh sea urchin (uni)
Pan-roasted Dover sole meunière with lemon butter
Seared sea scallops with citrus zest
Delicate goat cheeses like Crottin de Chavignol

Collector Notes & Cellar Potential

Les Vireuils is prized by collectors who adore the raciest, most mineral expressions of Domaine Roulot. While thrilling today for its energetic freshness, this 2021 will gain deeper complexity through 2036.
