Xavier Monnot is a leading wine maker in Meursault whose winemaking style emphasizes prurity of fruit, elegance and complexity. Xavier can trace his mother’s ancestors, the Monnier, back to 1723, with six generations of winegrowing. He took over the vineyard in 1994 and strated replanting parcels with a combination of old vines and new clones and upgraded the cellar with modern equipment. In 2005, along with improvements in the vineyard & cellar, he began bottling his wines under his own label.

Light golden colour. The nose picks up a finty minerality along with vanilla, hazelnut and toasty notes. Honey and peach flavors complement a rich and mouth filling wine. The shallow soils force the vines to struggle, producing excellent and complex wine with a long and mineral finish.
