Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières 2011 – François Mikulski
Precision and mineral tension from one of Meursault’s noblest climats
Vineyard philosophy
Les Perrières is often regarded as the most “grand cru-like” of Meursault’s premier crus. Mikulski’s organically farmed vines are rooted in shallow, stony limestone soils that deliver clarity, finesse, and deep minerality. The 2011 vintage brought balanced ripeness and moderate acidity. Careful green harvest and manual selection ensured healthy fruit, preserving the vibrancy that defines this exceptional terroir.
Approach in the cellar
Fermentation occurred spontaneously in French oak barrels (about 20% new), with minimal bâtonnage to avoid fatness. The wine then aged 12 months on lees in wood, followed by 6 months in stainless steel for refinement. Mikulski’s aim was to reveal the crystalline structure and mineral transparency of the site, allowing the wine to evolve gracefully over time.
Tasting notes
Pale golden yellow with bright reflections.
The nose is elegant, with lemon peel, chalk dust, roasted almonds, and delicate white flowers.
The palate is linear and deep, with precise tension, fine texture, and a long, saline, slightly smoky finish.

Domaine François Mikulski
Natural elegance and Burgundian precision in Meursault
Located in the heart of Meursault, Domaine François Mikulski has become one of the most respected and sought-after names in the Côte de Beaune. Founded in the early 1990s, the domaine reflects François Mikulski’s personal vision—rooted in discretion, perfectionism, and a deep reverence for Burgundian terroir.
A vineyard philosophy that listens to the land
In Mikulski’s vineyards, every action is guided by a single principle: respect for the living soil and the unique voice of each parcel. The estate’s vines—spread across Meursault, Puligny, Volnay, Pommard, and Monthélie—are farmed using organic practices (not certified by choice), with light touch vineyard work, minimal copper, and an obsessive attention to vine health. The goal is never to force, but to accompany—François and his son Jules observe and adapt, always letting nature lead.
In the cellar: discipline and restraint
The winemaking is a natural extension of the vineyard work: discreet, focused, and minimalist. Fermentations are spontaneous, bâtonnage is rare, and new oak is used judiciously—rarely more than 20%. Each lieu-dit is vinified separately to preserve its identity. The resulting wines are models of clarity, freshness, verticality, and precision, never chasing opulence, but rewarding those who appreciate finesse.
