Perrot-Minot
Gevrey-Chambertin domaine with holdings across several of the Côte de Nuits' most prestigious Grand Crus, producing structured, age-worthy Pinot Noir from old vines with a clear preference for concentration and depth.
History
Perrot-Minot is a family domaine based in Gevrey-Chambertin, operating across the Côte de Nuits with a concentration of holdings in the grands crus of the Chambertin constellation. The domaine passed through a generational shift when Christophe Minot took over winemaking responsibilities, a transition that proved consequential: the estate moved away from a more rustic, traditional style toward wines with greater precision and cleaner fruit definition, without abandoning the structural ambition the appellation demands. That shift brought the domaine considerably more critical attention through the 2000s and into the 2010s. The Perrot-Minot name reflects the blended family lineage common to Burgundian estates, and the current generation has consolidated the reputation built on a set of old-vine parcels that give the domaine much of its identity.
Vineyards
The domaine's most significant holdings are in Gevrey-Chambertin's grands crus, with parcels in Chambertin, Chambertin Clos-de-Beze, Charmes-Chambertin, Mazoyeres-Chambertin, and Chapelle-Chambertin. Mazoyeres and Charmes share a climat boundary and the domaine bottles them separately, which is relatively uncommon and signals a conviction that the distinctions between the two are worth preserving. Beyond Gevrey, the domaine works in Morey-Saint-Denis and Nuits-Saint-Georges, where the La Richemone premier cru, a dense, iron-inflected site, is bottled as a Cuvee Ultra, indicating a selection from the oldest vines or most concentrated barrels. Old vines are a recurring feature across the portfolio; the Vieilles Vignes designation appears on multiple bottlings and is taken seriously rather than used decoratively. Specific farming certifications are not widely documented, but the domaine is understood to work with a level of care consistent with its focus on vine age and site expression.
Winemaking
Christophe Minot's cellar approach leans toward moderate to significant new oak, which has been a point of discussion among critics, though the vine age and fruit concentration in the grand cru parcels generally absorb it over time. Fermentation draws on native yeasts and includes some whole-cluster work, though the proportion varies by vintage and vineyard. The wines are built for the medium to long term, with the grands crus in particular needing several years before they open up. The Cuvee Ultra designation on the Nuits-Saint-Georges La Richemone suggests a higher-selection tier within the domaine's hierarchy, though the precise criteria are not publicly detailed. Across the range, the style prioritizes depth and texture over early accessibility, which is consistent with how the domaine presents itself in the market.
