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.

"The 2019 Meursault Les Genevrières 1er Cru, which comes from 85-year-old vines, has an expressive, almost Charmes-like bouquet, wild honey mixed with heather and hints of chamomile. The oak is neatly enmeshed. The palate is very well balanced, one of the most elegant and poised contributions from this Premier Cru, offering touches of orange pith and white peach mixed with hazelnut toward the finish. The kind of Meursault that makes you smile like a Cheshire cat. Drink 2023-2040."  Neal Martin, Vinous.com
