Michel Juillot took over the domaine in 1963 and multiplied its operating area six fold in 20 years. Thanks to numerous experiences of trial and error, he eventually found his way and his recipe for quality. His son Laurent, after having travelled around the New World, returned in the 1990s and began to move the vineyard towards responsible and sustainable farming. In recent years, the installation of two meteorological stations has provided the Juillots with constant monitoring, making it possible to minimise the vagaries of the climate and spray less. This family success has greatly increased the prestige of the Mercurey appellation and he now exports to 26 countries.

This Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru continues to be made in the traditional way: manual harvesting and selection, whole grape pressing, a twelve-hour racking, barrel fermentation, and so on. The palate features the distinctive character of Chardonnay and its aromatic complexity (toasted bread, spices, floral, fruity notes, etc.). A very great white wine which can be aged for 10-15 years.
