About the Domaine: Génot-Boulanger

Family Roots: Founded in 1974 in Meursault by pharmacists Charles-Henri Génot and Marie Boulanger.
Organic Revolution: Fourth-generation winemakers Aude and Guillaume Lavollée took over in 2008, achieving full organic certification in 2018.
Modern Style: Renowned by top critics for non-interventionist winemaking that delivers pure, refined, and terroir-focused Burgundy.
Peak Elegance: Celebrated alongside Gevrey-Chambertin and Vosne-Romanée as one of Burgundy's "big three" red villages.
The Silk Appellation: Famous for producing the most delicate, airy, and perfumed expressions of Pinot Noir in the Côte de Nuits.
The Terroir: Sourced from two tiny estate parcels (Les Nazoires and Les Mombies) totaling just 0.76 hectares, where limestone-rich soils provide a vibrant mineral lift and ultra-fine tannins.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Highly aromatic and airy. It opens with a seductive bouquet of crushed wild strawberries, red cherries, and sweet raspberries, intertwined with delicate floral notes of violet and rose petals, shifting subtly toward warm spices and orange peel as it breathes.
Palate: Medium-bodied, vibrant, and effortlessly graceful. The palate bursts with sappy red berry fruit supported by crisp acidity and ultra-fine, silky tannins. A strong limestone mineral core grounds the fruit, delivering impressive depth and roundness.
Finish: Clean, lively, and lingering, leaving subtle traces of peppery spice, redcurrant, and chalky minerals.

Food Pairings
This savory and classic Burgundy Pinot Noir is an exquisite match for elevated dining. It pairs beautifully with roast duck, goose, or game birds. It also complements grilled veal chops, pan-seared squab, mushroom risotto, or mild, creamy French cheeses.
