New Arrivals/Restock

There are observable but minor differences between the wines of the different Climats (named plots). In most cases; Meursault is greeny-gold in color or canary yellow; leaning towards bronze as it ages. Limpid and brilliant; it sometimes exhibits silvery highlights. Its bouquet has strong aromas of ripe grapes. The young wine is redolent of toasted almonds and hazelnuts in a floral (mayflower; elder; bracken; lime; verbena) and mineral (flint) setting. Butter; honey; and citrus fruits are also present. On the palate it is rich and fat with a cheerful and appealing taste of hazelnut. Unctuousness and freshness are in silky balance. Long and structured; it needs time to mature - this is a great white wine for laying down.

Its aromatic power and exceptional balance between fat and acidity make it an aristocrat among burgundies. Unsurprisingly; it has a natural affinity with noble and fine-textured fish or meat; which it can match without overpowering. It performs a similar feat with joints of veal or poultry in white sauce; which are rendered sublime by the wine’s unctuous texture and long; distinguished acidity. Still better are grilled lobster; crawfish; or king prawns in sauce - dishes whose aromatic intensity and crisp texture match the lively and supple balance of the wine. Even blue cheeses and foie gras take to it immediately.

Serving temperature: 12 to 14°C.
