Michel Noellat
Domaine Michel Noëllat is a historic Burgundy producer, founded in the c19th century by Felix Noëllat. Today, it is run by 5th generation family members Alain and Jean-Marc Noëllat, and the 6th generation of Sebastien Noëllat and Sophie Noëllat-Sirugue.
The Noëllat family is the centre of an extraordinary network of connected families across the Côte de Nuits. Neal Martin has explained that Domaine Georges Noëllat originates from the cousin of the later Michel Noëllat, with Hudelot-Noëllat (in Clos Vougeot) related to ancestors further up the Noëllat family tree. There are Noëllat family ties to Cécile Tremblay, the Confurons and even to Ghislaine Barthod (whose name was “Barthod-Noëllat” in the 1980s). The estate is well connected geographically too; based in Vosne-Romanée, with the cellars directly opposite Clos de Réas, they are close to Domaine Leroy.
Domaine Michel Noëllat practices ‘lutte raisonée’ (sustainable practices) in their 27 hectares of vineyard in the Côte de Nuits, augmented by parcels in Savigny-lès-Beaune. The average age of the vines is between 60 and 70 years old. Everything here is de-stemmed and oak treatment is very restrained, with most wines matured in one-third each in new, one-year-old and two-year-old oak.

Vinous (88)The 2020 Chambolle-Musigny Village, matured in 30% new oak, is vibrant and fresh on the nose: black cherries, strawberry pastille and just a touch of violet petal. The palate is a little oaky on the entry. Good depth, quite dense for a Chambolle, touches of blood orange and pain d'épices towards the finish. Give it a couple of years in bottle. |

Vinous (89)The 2018 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is quite deep in colour. It has a slightly reduced bouquet with ample blackberry and raspberry fruit, well integrated oak, though it is missing the Pinoté character I look for. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and pleasant dark berry fruit laced with brown spices. It feels just a little short on the finish, overall a decent Clos de Vougeot that would show more finesse in a cooler growing season. - Neal Martin |

Vinous (86)Following the commendable Vosne-Romanée, I have to admit that the 2018 Echézeaux Grand Cru comes as a bit of a disappointment. It feels overwhelmed by the warmth of that summer. The nose lacks a bit of definition and has a metallic note that aeration cannot dislodge. The palate is medium-bodied with a slight chewiness on the entry. It is a solid Echézeaux that is missing finesse. Though the wine delivers decent weight on the finish, fact is that I actually prefer the aforementioned Village Cru. - Neal Martin |

Vinous (91)The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a rich and quite exotic bouquet that, for me, is just missing a bit of Pinoté. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe and fleshy tannins. Soft and caressing, nicely balanced, richer than the 2021 (no surprise there) with black pepper and a touch of spice on the finish. |

Very bright, precise and open knit on the nose. The fruit is fresh, sweet and friendly for a Nuits-Saint-Georges. Round and finessed this is a definite buy for lovers of Vosne Romanee but with a touch more tannic firmness and earthiness.

Bright, fresh and super pleasing nose right out of the gate, though the bouquet closed down quite quickly but the quality is obviously there. Structurally sound and showing a nice, silky texture.

Vinous (90)The 2020 Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots 1er Cru has an exotic bouquet with hints of prune filtering through the red cherry and cassis notes. Very opulent. The palate is rounded and caressing, plush and quite decadent. The 40-50% new oak is nicely integrated, though I would like to see more precision on the finish. |

Vinous (89)The 2020 Vosne-Romanée Village has a lively bouquet with dark cherry fruit, hints of fig and damson, though I would never describe it as over-ripe. There might be just touch of brettanomyces here. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins, quite rounded and voluminous in the mouth with a soft landing on the finish. Packed full of flavour, this will be easy to drink in its youth. |
