Domaine Jean-Marc Millot Description
“Domaine Jean-Marc Millot is a Burgundian delight. These are wines with such a joyful drinkability [that] deserve a place in most collectors’ cellars. The wines are detailed and transparent – and are mostly kept on the cool side, with a fine freshness and expression of terroir.”
-Steen Öhmann, Winehog
Jean-Marc Millot has been growing grapes and making estate bottled wines since 1992. With an amazing lineup of vineyards under his name, including 3 Grand Crus (Echezeaux, Grands Echezeaux, and Clos de Vougeot), it was clear this domaine was headed towards greatness. It wasn’t until his daughter, Alix, arrived in 2014 and took on the full grape growing and winemaking responsibilities that this greatness was achieved. The wines have that rare ability to provide immediate carnal pleasure, while having the stuffing to age for decades. This is truly one of the most exciting domaines in Burgundy.
The Bourgogne parcel is across the road from the Nuits-St-Georges 1er "Clos de la Maréchale" from Mugnier!
Burghound: 86-89 Points
A very pretty nose reflects notes of fresh red berries along with hints of spice and earth. There is a lovely texture to the generously proportioned and seductively textured flavors that flash only a trace of rusticity on the sappy finish. This offers fine quality for the genre and is worth a look.
