TRICOT M-J
The story of MJ TRICOT began in 1848, when Jean Ropiteau, a Burgundian winegrower, founded his trading house in Monthelie, before moving to Meursault in 15th and 17th century cellars. In the 1930s, his son André took charge of the estate. An avid traveler, he divided his time between Burgundy and the South Seas. He died on the battlefield in 1940.
His brother Jean, destined for the diplomatic service, took over the estate, passing it on to his children. In the 1970s, Jean sold the estate but kept the vines, which were precious to the family. Marie Josèphe Ropiteau-Tricot, his eldest daughter, looks after the estate.
In 2018, Vincent Tricot, a direct descendant, took up the torch and created MJ TRICOT, an "owner - non-harvesting - seller" company. While remaining faithful to the family roots and the terroir of Meursault, the vinification and aging of the wines are entrusted to Bouchard Père & Fils, a renowned house. Today, MJ TRICOT wines embody 170 years of expertise, expressing the richness of the Meursault terroirs with a constant respect for family tradition .
