XAVIER MONNOT BOURGOGNE ROUGE 2019

Xavier Monnot is a leading producer in Meursault whose winemaking style emphasizes the purity of fruit, elegance, and complexity. Before the release of the 2005 vintage, the property was known as Domaine René Monnier (Xavier’s grandfather). In 2005, along with improvements in the vineyard and cellar, Xavier began bottling his wines under his label. Domaine Xavier Monnot is a 17-hectare estate in Meursault with vineyards stretching from Beaune to Maranges. 60% of the Domaine’s production is white and 40% red with several premier crus in Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Beaune, Volnay, and Maranges. Xavier believes in maintaining an average vine age of 30 to 40 years and practices lutte raisonnée.
