Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Sep 16
Very ripe aromas of orange zest, pineapple and lichee. Fat and sweet but energetic, with a firm spine of acidity that will need some time to harmonize with the wine's fruit. Less dense and more airy than the Clos des Ambres, with a soft citrus flavor providing lift to the middle palate. Finishes fine-grained, juicy and very long, with a repeating suggestion of orange juice.

Tank sample. This parcel by Grands Charrons and Chevalières. Strong smell of wet stones. Rich fruit on the front palate. All builds towards a very meaty, ‘manly’ Hermitage of a Meursault. Masses to chew on. Do not attempt this without food! Very long and muscular. (JR)

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.
