Michel Niellon

Recognized by Parker as one of the World’s Greatest Wine Estates, Michel Niellon produces exceptional white Burgundies from his modest underground cellars. With just under 6 hectares of premier cru vineyards in Clos St Jean, Champ Gain, Maltroie, and Vergers, plus grand cru holdings in Bâtard-Montrachet and Chevalier-Montrachet, his wines showcase purity and balance from old vines. Embracing a natural winemaking philosophy, Niellon keeps yields generous (45-50 hl/ha) and uses minimal new oak (around 25%), resulting in an elegant, terroir-driven style adored by connoisseurs and casual drinkers alike. Increasingly featured in top restaurants like Caprice at the Four Seasons, these wines are a benchmark for premier and grand cru Chassagne-Montrachet.
