Rated estate (2025 guide) 5*Stars (Exceptional producers, those representing the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and around the world)

About the estate:

Following the passing of his father, a charismatic figure in the global wine world, Jean-Philippe Blot took the reins on his own, supported by a close-knit team of winemakers and vineyard managers. This ensures, in the finest possible way, the continued success of this flagship estate in the French wine region, which stands out for wines that are consistently well-balanced, displaying great aromatic intensity and depth.
