Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 14 Jan 21
Aromas of pear, blanched almonds, orange oil and pastry cream introduce the 2018 Meursault 1er Cru Aux Cras, a medium-bodied, ample and enveloping wine that's open-knit and accessible. This will drink well young.

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.
