Description
  • Situated just south of Volnay and Pommard in the Côte de Beaune, Meursault is the most extensive southerly white wine commune of the Côte-d'Or. The perfect south-easterly exposure and the stony, marl soil contribute greatly to the remarkable finesse of which the wines of Meursault are capable. Typical Meursault tend to be very full, mellow wines and mature somewhat sooner than the wines from the neighbouring communes of Puligny and Chassagne.

Wine tasting
  • Tasting Note
    Our Meursault blanc 2016 has a pretty pale yellow color with green reflections. The nose is intense with notes of white fruits and vanilla. Round and complex in the mouth, aromas of citrus and acacia emerge in the final. Beautiful minerality on the finish.
  • Food Pairing
    Prawn cocktail avocado - grilled sea bass - stew of veal in a cream sauce - Beaufort cheese
