The Domaine Meix Foulot has been in the hands of the de Launay family for multiple generations. Paul de Launay took the reins during the 1960s and began to bottle an increasingly important percentage of the wine produced at the domaine. Now, in the mid-1990s, his daughter, Agnes, joined the domaine and is now solely responsible for this exceptionally beautiful and historic domaine.

There are 20 hectares of vineyards, all sited within the confines of Mercurey. Ninety percent of the vines are planted to Pinot Noir; the remainder is planted to Chardonnay. The vineyards are managed in as natural a manner as possible. Vines are pruned short, no herbicides are used, and fertilizer, natural compost, is rarely applied. Crop size is further reduced in July.

The white wine undergoes a rapid pressing, with fermentation occurring partially in barrel and partially in cuve. About 20% new oak is used in the elevage of the white. The reds are entirely destemmed; natural yeast is used; and there is a cold maceration of 24 to 48 hours. During a cuvaison of two weeks or more, there is a pigeage, often twice daily but the intensity and duration are determined by the structure and character of the vintage. The elevage is divided between small barrel and cuve for an eight month period; then, the wines are assembled and racked into barrel for another 12 to 16 months before bottling. Most of the red wines destined for the United States are not filtered.
