Tasting Notes

87-89
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Sep 10
Perfumed aromas of orange blossom, ginger and crushed stone. Sweet and soft but with bright acidity and spicy nutmeg and ginger flavors giving shape to the peachy fruit. Finishes with a lingering spice character.

Meursault

Meursault, in Burgundy's Côte de Beaune, is famed for its rich and complex Chardonnay wines. Known for opulent textures, vibrant acidity, and nutty, buttery flavours with notes of stone fruits, citrus, and hazelnuts, these wines also feature a subtle minerality and creamy mouthfeel from limestone-rich soils and oak ageing. Though lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Perrières, Les Genevrières, and Les Charmes produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine des Comtes Lafon, Domaine Roulot, and Domaine Coche-Dury, all celebrated for showcasing Meursault's unique terroir.
