THE COMPANY

In 1988 Alain and Sophie Meunier began running the domaine that belonged to Sophie’s father: until that moment they knew next to nothing about vines and wine. They did, however, have a common taste for things well done, and they immediately understood that good wine comes from good vineyards. In order to respect the typicity of each terroir at its best, they have been using natural products to grow the vines since 1990. Some small vineyards are worked with horses, which has been slow and costly since 2003, but which in the end respects the soil, favoring aeration and micro-oxygenation. Alain today represents traditional wines and, with the advantage of an in-depth knowledge of biodynamics, he obtains elegant wines with great potential of ageing. With Nuits-Saint-Georges wines, the smallest edges between the different parcels are clean and marked, and the vintages, even though different, always have a theme: this is the great resource of the small Domaine in Premeaux.

CĂ´te de Nuits

The CĂ´te de Nuits covers the approximately 20 km from the northern limit of the AOC Marsannay to the southern limit of the AOC Cote de Nuits-Villages, in the municipality of Corgoloin. More body, greater longevity and more intense color distinguish a Cote de Nuits wine in comparison with a Volnay or Beaune. This is a red wine area with some incredible exceptions in white. The band of Premier Cru that winds along the hills of the Cote de Nuits is intersected by patches of Grand Cru. These are the wines that express with greater intensity the inimitable vigorous richness and elegance of pinot noir. The vineyards extend along the band of marly rock outcropping below the hard limestone hilltop.
