Burgundy 2018: BALLOT-MILLOT

Ballot-Millot Vineyard.jpg

In 2001 Charles Ballot took over the running of the Domaine from his father Philippe and has since strived to establish it as one of the finest producers in Meursault.

Domaine Ballot-Millot boasts an enviable selection of 1er Cru holdings and recent vintages have stood up admirably to the likes of Lafon in the annual blind Burgfest tastings.  An insider's secret, Ballot-Millot’s wines offer incredible quality and value - beautifully pure, racy whites that display great elegance and finesse and with the ability to age.

Recent vintages have received much acclaim from Allen Meadows and Neal Martin and our 2017 allocation sold through quickly.  With 2018 a highly regarded vintage for white Burgundy we do not expect these to be around for long.
