Ballot-Millot, Bourgogne Blanc 2024 3-pack (Pre-Sale Arriving 9/28)
$135
Ballot-Millot is a White Burgundy address that’s very much on the rise. The pure, smoky style reminds of producers like Roulot and Lafon. Like those icons, Charles Ballot makes white wines from the greatest vineyards in the village of Meursault. However, Ballot-Millot is still available for a fraction of the price. That’s going to change soon, but before it does, we recommend exploring the wines as much as possible. This fresh, richly textured White Burgundy is an ideal place to start.
Here's what you should know about it:
- Since taking over his family’s winery in Meursault, Charles Ballot has made continuous improvements in the vineyards and cellar. The wines have taken a major leap in quality.
- He makes this White Burgundy with grapes primarily from Meursault. It’s unoaked, and aged extensively prior to release.
- It showcases Ballot-Millot’s fresh, salty, bright-fruited style.
As sommeliers, we often get asked, “What’s the best wine on the list?”
