RATINGS

95The Wine Advocate

Endless layers of explosive fruit emerge with no end. This is an intensely pointed, chiseled wine endowed with tons of richness and power. Hints of slate, crushed rocks and citrus are woven together on the pointed, utterly brilliant finish.

94Stephen Tanzer

...a quintessential fresh example of this premier cru. Broad, rich and tangy, with almost painful peppery acidity giving brilliant precision and cut to the dense mid-palate...A beauty.

91-94Burghound.com

...a textbook Genevrières nose...There is beautiful detail and purity to the lemony and overtly stony flavors that also possess a bone dry, vibrant and driving finish...

17.5Jancis Robinson

Very pale green gold. Scented with concentrated herbs. Racy and quite delicate and with a strong linear attack on the palate. Lively and very pure. Filigree layers already.

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.
