The wine is a 'Premier Cru' from the 'Santenots du Milieu' vineyard, a southern part of Volnay that borders Meursault. Francois Mikulski, who inherited his first vines in 1992, established the domaine in Meursault with his wife Marie-Pierre, pursuing a vision of authenticity, purity, and elegance. The winery's philosophy is centred on practicing organic farming and sustainable soil management, treating vines as living organisms and using minimal intervention in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWine Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal Composition:\u003c\/strong\u003e This wine is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
