The history of Domaine Roulot goes back to the 1930s, when Guy Roulot, a pharmacist by training, inherited the vineyards in Meursault from his father. Guy made the decision to switch from pharmacy to wine making and founded Domaine Roulot. His dedication to producing high quality wines laid the foundation for the domain's reputation. In the late 1980s, Guy Roulot's son, Jean-Marc Roulot, took over the estate from his father. Jean-Marc continued the family's winemaking tradition and further elevated the estate's status through his meticulous approach to viticulture and winemaking. Led by Jean-Marc Roulot, Domaine Roulot is known for adhering to traditional Burgundian winemaking practices. The estate has embraced organic and biodynamic farming methods in the vineyards, with an emphasis on respect for the terroir and the desire to express the unique characteristics of each plot.

Jean-Marc Roulot is known for his meticulous attention to detail, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. The winery practices organic and biodynamic agriculture, and the grapes are harvested by hand. The use of indigenous yeast for fermentation and maturation in French oak barrels, often with a significant percentage of new oak, contributes to the complexity and aging potential of the wines. Roulot's wines are highly sought after and considered rare due to several factors. Firstly, the estate has relatively small vineyards, which means that total production is limited. Secondly, the wines consistently receive high praise from critics, further increasing demand. Finally, the estate's commitment to quality and the artisanal nature of winemaking contribute to the limited availability of these sought-after wines.

Certain bottlings, such as Grand Crus such as Les Perrières and Les Charmes, are particularly scarce and can be difficult to find. Collectors and Burgundian enthusiasts often actively seek out wines from Domaine Roulot, making them prized additions to wine cellars. Domaine Roulot produces wines from several vineyards in Meursault. These vineyards are known for producing wines with clear terroir-driven characteristics. It is important to note that availability and specific releases of Domaine Roulot may vary from vintage to vintage.
