    Producer

    Jean-Marc Millot's vineyard is located on the slopes of the Côte de Nuits, benefiting from a temperate climate and optimal sunshine. The soils, composed primarily of limestone and clay, impart a unique minerality to the grapes. The vines, several decades old, are cultivated using sustainable practices, promoting responsible viticulture. Each plot is carefully selected for its ability to express the terroir, thus producing wines of great authenticity.

    Owner and history

    Jean-Marc Millot, passionate about winemaking since childhood, passed on his love of wine to his family. Today, the estate is managed by Jean-Marc and his children, who perpetuate the family tradition while incorporating innovative practices. Their commitment to quality and respect for the environment is central to their approach. Each wine is the culmination of a collective effort, where every member of the family plays a vital role in the pursuit of excellence.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Jean-Marc Millot is carried out with absolute respect for the raw materials. The grapes, harvested by hand, are carefully sorted before being destemmed. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats, allowing for optimal temperature control. Aging on the lees lasts several months in oak barrels, adding complexity and richness to the wine. This traditional method, combined with a modern approach, makes it possible to create wines that faithfully reflect the Burgundy terroir.
