Profile & Story
Domaine Dujardin is a family estate in Monthelie, between Meursault and Volnay in the Cote de Beaune, farming 8 hectares across Monthelie, Meursault, Auxey-Duresses, and Bouzeron. Long led by Catherine and Ulrich Dujardin, the domaine has recently passed to their children Margaux and Paul, who have drawn early praise from critics (William Kelley of Wine Advocate called it 'an address to watch,' citing a style that emphasizes fruit purity; Jasper Morris MW has praised the Chardonnays' precision). La Tournelle is their Bouzeron bottling, 100% Aligote from a sloped, limestone-rich parcel next to Rully's La Folie, worked with plough cultivation and increasingly biodynamic principles.
Tasting Notes
A precise, salty, stony expression of Aligote reflecting Bouzeron's active-limestone soils - fresh and direct aromatics with good concentration and balanced, energetic acidity on the palate; more serious and mineral-driven than a typical village Aligote.
