Domaine Génot-Boulanger Description
The history of the estate begins with the realization of a dream, back in 1974, when Charles-Henri Génot and his wife, Marie née Boulanger moved to Meursault. They acquired their first vineyards in Mercurey and created the Domaine. Charles-Henri never tired in his search for additional terroir, obtaining parcels in Meursault, Chassagne-Montrachet, Volley, Pommard and Beaune. Their son, Francois, inherited a total of 22 hectares of vineyards across 30 appellations in 1998 and continued the family endeavor for ten years until his daughter, Aude, and son-in-law, Guillaume Lavollée joined him.
Since 2008, Guillaume and Aude have worked painstakingly to improve the quality of their wines, converting to organic farming practices and experimenting with biodynamics.
This parcel of Chardonnay is 0.21 hectare and was planted in 1991. The poor and shallow soils are white marl and limestone based as well as rich in silt and sand.
