Domaine Michel Niellon Wines

While they can easily be considered just an upstart in terms of their history, the creative visionaries behind Domaine Michel Niellon have managed to develop an amazing formula for success. It all starts and ends with their delicious white, a wine potent enough to crumble mountains but refreshing enough to sustain you through a desert trip. They’re one of the best-established producers in Chassagne-Montrachet, and they’re not showing signs of slowing down. Investing in their brand might prove profitable soon if it isn’t already. The flavor profile is diverse and delicious, with a lot of perfectly ripe fruit on offer, and layers upon layers of contrasting aromas. From the garden flowers to the toasted nuts for warmth, you’ll fall in love with at least one of the ingredients.

2021 domaine michel niellon chevalier montrachet grand cru Burgundy White

In 2021, the domaine protected this site above all from frost but still lost half their crop, despite being surrounded by the also well-protected vines of Domaine Leflaive. Accessible almost even now, the aromas of green apple and passionfruit, coconut, butter, and baking spice are almost opening even now. There is a lovely freshness and silky texture, yet this is a powerful wine with impressive length and density at the end. This should open in five years and continue to improve for at least twenty-five more.Decanter | 96 DECA gorgeously fresh, airy and cool nose combines notes of green apple, a panoply of white flowers nuances, wet stone and a pretty array of exotic spice elements, especially jasmine. There is a notably more refined mouthfeel to the tautly muscular and overtly mineral-driven medium weight plus flavors that exhibit focused power on the impressively long, balanced, youthfully austere and very classy finale. This is exceptionally stylish and a wine that should easily reward a decade plus of keeping.Burghound | 94 BH

2022 Domaine Michel Niellon Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru, Burgundy White

A wine of intense concentration, tension and focus, even in the warm conditions of 2022. Aroma notes of ripe apple, peach and quince, then the volume and density you’d expect from 2022, but it’s well balanced by the fresh acidity that draws it to a lingering finish. Grapes from Niellon’s plot of old vines are fermented on native yeasts in 40% new cask. This wine is among the best from this vintage and will make old bones if you are so inclined.Decanter | 98 DECThe vines were planted in 1962 and 1968. Pale to mid lemon in colour. A light reduction on the nose. The limestone is close to the surface on the nose, a little biscuit note, this is discreet but evidently with a fine tensile strength. Just leave this the time to blossom and it will become a really fine example. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted: October 2023.Jasper Morris | 95 JM
