Armand Heitz represents the fifth generation of a Burgundy winegrowing family whose vineyard holdings date back to 1857. After studying oenology at Changins in Switzerland, he returned to the family domaine and began gradually taking back vineyards that had previously been leased to négociants, producing his first vintage under his own direction in 2013. Today, his approach centres on agroecology and regenerative farming, with minimal intervention in the cellar intended to preserve the identity of each site.

Meursault La Barre comes from a 0.49-hectare parcel that Armand took back in 2015, planted in 1969 and 2008. The vineyard has shallow limestone-marl soils with a relatively high proportion of clay, a composition that gives La Barre greater richness and density than some of the domaine’s other Meursault sites.

Made entirely from Chardonnay, the wine is matured for 11 months, with 20–40% new oak. It combines the breadth associated with Meursault with freshness and definition: ripe orchard fruit, toasted nuts and acacia are supported by a fuller, textured palate and persistent acidity. Armand Heitz describes La Barre as a particularly consistent expression of the appellation, bringing together freshness and purity with the weight and intensity characteristic of the site.
