With history dating back as far as the late 19th Century, Christophe Perrot-Minot took over the domaine from his father Henri in 1993, right after his 7 years of practice as a professional wine broker. The estate has holdings that came from his maternal grandfather Merme which explains the similarity of their holdings with Domaine Taupenot-Merme, and also from an acquisition of Domaine Pernin-Rossin in 2000. Their approach to viticulture is to give full respect to the terroir and nature, in which no chemical fertilizers or herbicides are used. With an amazing holding of old vines aged from 40 to 100 years old, the perfect match of low yields and Christophe’s meticulousness are all core to the great quality of the Perrot-Minot wines. The grapes are all hand-picked and matured in a maximum of 20% new oak and around 50% whole bunches across the range. The resulting wines are ripe, refined and concentrated, even though with an almost modern intensity and polish, their nuances and character still stand out powerfully. 

We are delighted to introduce a cuvee from Domaine Perrot-Minot which is under-the-radar,  it received a stunning 90-93pts from Burghound's  Allen Meadows who also put it a "Sweet Spot Outstanding"  not to be missed. There is no production of La Combe d'Orveau 'Cuvee Ultra Vieilles Vignes' 1er Cru, Les Charmes 1er Cru, Les Fuees 1er Cru, and Orveaux des Bussieres in Vintage 2016 which that all of these grapes are blended in this village production.

Domaine Perrot-Minot Chambolle-Musigny Vieilles Vignes 2016 

HK$990 per bottle, 30 bottles available (^Best Price in the World) 

90-93pts Allen Meadows "Sweet Spot Outstanding" 

A more elegant and complex nose combines notes of dark raspberry, cherry, violet, lavender and pretty spice whiffs. The sleek, intense and mineral-inflected middle weight plus flavors brim with dry extract as well as a highly attractive underlying tension while delivering first-rate depth and persistence on the balanced finish. While it's true that almost half of the blend is from premier cru vineyards, this is still a superb Chambolle villages and very much worth your attention.
