From our Importer: Guillaume and Aude Lavollée represent the fourth generation of vignerons at Génot-Boulanger. Their wines are produced exclusively from estate-owned vineyards, located along all three Burgundy côtes, from Chambolle Musigny, down to the domaine in Meursault, and on to Mercurey. With 22 hectares, Génot-Boulanger is one of only a few family-owned Burgundian domaines to produce such a diverse range. (They produce wine from over 30 appellations!)

Since 2008, Guillaume and Aude have worked painstakingly to improve the quality of their wines, converting to organic farming practices and experimenting with biodynamics. The domaine’s philosophy is “maximum work in the vineyards for minimum intervention in the cuverie.” This has translated to wines that are first and foremost true to their terroir.

Since the new generation came on board, there is even more attention to the vineyards. They chose to do horse- drawn plowing in the smaller parcels and apply composts and plant-based herbal remedies to promote the soils and the plants’ equilibrium. Pruning, budding and trellising is evaluated vineyard by vineyard to stimulate the maturity and health of the grapes. The domaine is in organic conversion.

Mercurey is one of the most important appellations in the Côte Chalonnaise. Genot-Boulanger's parcel of Mercurey 1er Cru Sazenay was planted in 2000 and 2015. The plot is 1.81 hectare and is well situated on the slope with a full eastern exposure.
