Description
The winery's origins date back to the mid-19th century and were based on the Amoignon family's vineyards. During the First World War, the name Amoignon was replaced by Matrot, as the name had been adopted by marriage. Thierry and Pascale Matrot now run the estate, and their two daughters also work in the business. Domaine Matrot produces a wide range of Burgundy wines from the Côte de Beaune, including both white and red wines, ranging from basic to premier cru wines.
This Matrot is a 100% Pinot Noir from a selection of vines in Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. The grapes are destemmed and fermented with natural yeasts. Fermentation takes place for 12 to 18 days with two pump-overs/pigeage sessions per day. The wine is aged for 15 months in oak barrels, 10% of which are new, and then matured for a further 3 months in stainless steel.
The Matrot Bourgogne Pinot Noir is dominated by notes of fresh and sweet red fruit. It's a beautiful, pure red Burgundy, with balanced yet slightly oaky notes, lovely red fruit notes of ripe cherries, and that characteristic Pinot Noir peppery note. It's juicy with soft tannins. Delicious served slightly chilled.

February 2020 Week 2, The Wine Advocate
The 2018 Meursault-Blagny 1er Cru was showing very well, exhibiting notes of pear, hazelnuts, dried white flowers and blanched almonds, followed by a medium to full-bodied, chalky and tensile palate with fine depth at the core and a long, incisive finish.
As I wrote last year, the style at this important 19-hectare domaine is pure and understated, minimal wood influence meaning that it is the grapes —and the climats that shape them—that are front and center at all times, and positive evolution is taking place: Matrot is experimenting with longer élevage for some of her more exalted appellations, and in response to the problems of premature oxidation, bottling now takes place by gravity, with more attention given to dissolved oxygen levels. The 2018 vintage has turned out very well, producing elegant and nicely balanced wines, and some 2017s, revisited from bottle, surpassed my high expectations formed last year. Savvy consumers will take note of the domaine's under-the-radar wines, especially their emblematic red Blagny from La Pièce Sous Le Bois.

The 2021 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru offers attractive orchard fruit on the nose, hints of beeswax and honeysuckle, well-defined and focused. The palate is certainly richer than the Meursault and Pulignys from Matrot, with peach skin, dried apricot and a touch of spice on the finish. Lovely length. Delicious!

There is a sliding scale of frankness amongst the Burgundy winemaking fraternity. On that scale, co-proprietor Adèle Matrot, who works alongside her sister Elsa, is so brutally candid that in a rare role reversal, I find myself trying to cheer her up. Her wines are by no means catastrophic. However, the truth is that this excellent and fast-improving Meursault producer was acutely impacted by the challenging growing season. Their wines took the brunt of the frost and all the travails that followed. They will be back stronger next year.
“I don’t think it’s a good vintage,” Matrot tells me. “People say that vintages were like this in the past, but that’s because they didn’t really reach ripeness. I don’t think the 2021s have longevity - they are fruity, fresh and easy to drink. I’m afraid that they will deteriorate after a decade or so. Because of the frost, we had different ripening cycles, and we had to double the work in the vineyard. We spent nights lighting candles for practically nothing. On top of that, it was very rainy, so it was complicated to do the spraying. We started picking on 17 September, a month later than the previous year. For us, we are unused to producing such a low volume. We had never made less than five barrels of a cuvée, and in 2021 we produced two under that. Finding pickers was hard, despite the low volume, because it was a late vintage. Filling the tanks was very difficult. The fermentation was no problem, and finishing the sugar and the malo was a bit late, especially for the Auxey-Duresses. But all the malos are done now. We racked all the reds just before barrelling down the 2022s. There’s no new oak used in most cuvées and just 10-20% in the Volnay and Blagny, everything de-stemmed. The vintage is too light to add lots of new wood.”
The sisters will fight another day. There are one or two cuvées worth seeking out, and I think their reds are better than they think. But the whites feel anonymous, scalped of what makes them special.

Domaine Matrot is a prestigious wine producer located in the heart of the Burgundian wine region in France. The history of Domaine Matrot goes back several generations. It started at the end of the 19th century when Joseph Matrot founded the estate in Meursault, a renowned village for producing exceptional Chardonnay wines.
Over the years, the Matrot family has painstakingly cultivated and expanded their vineyards, acquiring prime plots of land in some of Burgundy's most prized appellations, including Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Volnay. This strategic acquisition of vineyards has enabled Domaine Matrot to produce a wide range of high-quality wines that showcase the unique terroir of each vineyard location. Domaine Matrot is known for its traditional winemaking techniques, prioritizing minimal intervention to allow the expression of the terroir and the characteristics of the grape varieties to shine through in the final wines. They typically ferment their wines using indigenous yeasts and age them in French oak barrels to add complexity and structure while respecting the delicate nuances of the fruit.
The estate has been passed down through several generations of the Matrot family, each contributing their expertise and passion for winemaking to uphold the domain's reputation for excellence. Today, Domaine Matrot is run by the current generation of the family, who continue to uphold the estate's traditions while embracing modern developments in viticulture and winemaking. Domaine Matrot consistently produces wines that reflect Burgundy's unique terroir and skill.
