Persoonlijke gegevens
The Niellon family has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 19th century when the family was founded by Michel Niellon's grandfather, Léon Niellon. In the 1960s, Michel Niellon took over the family business from his father, Marcel Niellon, and continued the tradition of producing exceptional Burgundian wines. The estate has six hectares of vineyards, mainly located in the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation. The vineyards are located at different altitudes between 200 and 400 meters, which contributes to the unique character of their wines.
Domaine Michel Niellon is characterized by meticulous attention to detail. Both the Pinot Noir and the Chardonnay are picked by hand and strictly selected for quality. The fermentation process is initiated using the natural yeasts present on the grape skins. The wines are aged in French oak barrels, with a portion of new wood (typically 15% to 30%). Malolactic conversion and Sur Lie also take place in these wooden barrels. Domaine Michel Niellon is known for producing high-quality Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines. Their icon, the Bâtard-Montrachet, is highly regarded. In addition, the Chassagne-Montrachet's of these products are known worldwide for their exceptional quality.
One of the Premier Cru domains of the year from Burgundy is Niellon. Classically made chardonnay from Chassagne Montrachet. A domain that has grown in recent years into a producer of top wines. The Chassagne-Montrachet Clos de la Maltroie 1er Cru 2022 is a very classic, sleek mineral-driven wine. The taste is well balanced with beautifully integrated oak at the entrance. Fresh and salty, with sufficient grip towards the aftertaste, with just a hint of grilled walnut and nice length. Top wine that will lose its wild hair with a few years of bottle aging.
The bottles are equipped with an NFC tag/chip - This allows the bottles to be checked for authenticity.
FACT : The wine is stored in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you pick up the wine you will often receive a nice discount.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Clos de la Maltroie 1er Cru van Michel Niellon toont een strak mineraal profiel met frisse citrus- en groene appeltonen, subtiel geïntegreerd eikenhout, een ziltige grip en een hint van gegrilde walnoot die voor fijne lengte zorgt. Dankzij die frisse zuurgraad, het ziltige karakter en de afgeronde houttonen sluit hij prachtig aan bij gevogelte, witte vis, schelp- en schaaldieren en zachte kazen; denk aan gebakken of langzaam geroosterde kip, gegrilde zeebaars met een lichte citroenboter, coquilles licht gebakken op de huid of een romige coquilleschelp, en kazen zoals jonge Comté of Brie. Voor extra plezier kies bereidingswijzen die mineraliteit en frisheid benadrukken zoals kort en heet aanbraden of grillen, licht gebonden botersausjes met citroen of een scheutje wijn en korte rijping op hout voor het gevogelte. |

From: Now, For My Latest Trick: Burgundy 2022 (Jan 2024)
The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Clos de la Maltroie 1er Cru is actually more backward on the nose compared to the Village Cru, tightly coiled with mineral-driven, malic fruit. The palate is well balanced with neatly integrated oak on the entry. Fresh and saline, there’s ample grip toward the finish, with just a touch of grilled walnut and fine length. Excellent. Tasted at merchants' 2022 Burgundy tastings in London.

Domaine Michel Niellon is a winery located in the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation in the Côte de Beaune region (Burgundy, France).
History of Domaine Michel Niellon
The Niellon family has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 19th century when the family was founded by Michel Niellon's grandfather, Léon Niellon. In the 1960s, Michel Niellon took over the family business from his father, Marcel Niellon, and continued the tradition of producing exceptional Burgundian wines. The estate has six hectares of vineyards, mainly located in the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation. The vineyards are located at different altitudes between 200 and 400 meters, which contributes to the unique character of their wines. Michel Niellon keeps it traditional. Many of their vineyards still contain vines planted by Marcel Niellon in 1926. When replanting is necessary, they use low yielding clones to ensure the grapes produced are highly concentrated and of superior quality.
