This village Meursault is a carefully crafted blend sourced from some of the finest lieux-dit vineyard sites in the region, including Clos du Cromin, Dressoles, Les Pellans, La Barre, Les Vireuils and Les Corbins (just over one hectare altogether). Each of these vineyard sites contributes unique characteristics and qualities to the final wine, creating a harmonious and complex profile. The average age of the vines in these distinguished plots is an impressive 65 years old. These mature vines, with their deep roots and well-established presence, yield grapes of exceptional concentration and depth, which are reflected in the wine's rich texture and nuanced flavors. The combination of these premier vineyard sites and the venerable age of the vines results in a village Meursault that embodies the best attributes of its terroir, offering a wine of remarkable elegance and sophistication. Maturation, 18 months (20-25% new oak), fined and filtered only when necessary
"The 2022 Meursault Village is ample and generous, wafting from the glass with notes of pear, clear honey, green apple and bread dough. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a rich core of fruit girdled by lively acids, it concludes with a saline finish."
