Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 28 Dec 18
Elegant and charming, the 2013 Meursault Les Vireuils offers up a reserved bouquet of flinty citrus complemented by subtle top notes of honey and apricot. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, fine-boned and delicate, with an incisive, tangy profile. It should enjoy a broad drinking window.

Meursault Fine Wine

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.
