history

The Paulée de Meursault was founded in 1923 by Count Jules Lafon, then Mayor of Meursault. Because of the low sales success of the Burgundy wines around 1920 and the consequences of a global crisis ( phylloxera ), Lafon had a festival of the Cistercian monks of the Abbey of Cîteaux for the grape harvest. In 1923 he organized his first Paulée on his vineyard in Meursault. He also invited 35 friends to a banquet.

Paulée Literature Prize

The organization "La Paulée de Meursault" has been awarding a literary prize (almost) every year since 1932. This will be awarded during the event. Up until the 1960s, awards were given for literary works that deal with Burgundian wine, Burgundian cuisine and the Burgundian way of life. Today, two criteria are indispensable for the literature prize, which must be expressed in the works of the authors: the overall charisma of the Burgundy region and the unreserved passion for Burgundian wine. The literary award includes 100 bottles of wine with the Designation of Origin Meursault.
