RATINGS

92+ The Wine Advocate

The palate is medium-bodied with tangy orange peel and sour lemon, nicely integrated oak here with a hint of walnut towards the finish.

91-93Stephen Tanzer

Sexy aromas of stone fruits and brioche are quintessential Meursault. Dense, precise and fine-grained, showing a lovely sweet touch but also excellent energy to its flavors of apricot, peach and toasted bread.

Naturally exotic aromas are composed mostly by cool floral, petrol, wet stone and sandalwood nuances.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Beaune, Meursault, Les Genevrieres

Les Genevrieres is 41-acre Premier Cru vineyard in Meursault, in Burgundy’s Cote de Beaune. It is in the southern part of the appellation, and just to the north of Les Perrieres and Les Charmes. Burgundy writer Clive Coates says that “Genevrieres is an opulent, even exotic wine. It is rounder than Perrieres and if not fuller, then certainly lusher…Here flavors are muskier, and there can be an element of citrus.” Since Meursault lacks a Grand Cru, Meursault’s reputation for excellence is based on the Premier Crus, particularly the whites.

TYPE

White Wine, Chardonnay, 1er (Premier) Cru

This white variety originated in Burgundy, but is now grown around the world. Its flexibility to thrive in many regions translates to wide flavor profile in the market. Chardonnay is commonly used in making Champagne and sparkling wines.
