Domaine Mikulski
Unlike many others in Burgundy François Mikulski does not have a long line of vignerons in his family. Domaine Mikulski was founded as late as in 1992. His father left his native Poland for England in 1939. Via Luxembourg he arrived in Dijon where François Mikulski was born in 1963. With a Polish name and no family tradition to keep in mind François Mikulski and his wife Marie-Pierre were free to create something completely new when they founded Domaine Mikulski in 1992. The most obvious result was the labels for the bottles, far from the traditional burgundian label.
Today Domaine Mikulski covers 8.5 ha. The vines are spread over Meursault and the neighboring communes. One quarter of the production is red. The white production is focused on Meursault. Its Aligoté comes from vines planted in 1929, which gives the wine a lovely character. The annual production is around 10 000 bottles and 75 percent of this is exported. What makes a Meursault a Meursault is a particular style changing with the Premier Cru and the winemaker. There’s no perfect style. For Mikulski the best style is minerality. In white wine he like purity, minerality and of course with minerality a certain acidity, just to make the wine exciting.
