DOMAINE DE CHATEAU DE MEURSAULT 1er Cru Perrieres , Meursault

DOMAINE DE CHATEAU DE MEURSAULT 1er Cru Charmes Dessus , Meursault

Cuvée du Pandoréa Meursault Six suppliers enable this plush Meursault, built in the traditional mould of ripe stone fruits, buttery viscosity and ample scents of toasted hazelnuts and generous oak. Inimitably of place, this is a wine for those pining for flavour and textural amplitude, in an era of linear expressions. A top tier wine built for cellaring or earlyish approachability, as long as the drinker does not mind a rail of phenolics and salubrious, cinnamon-scented oak. Expressive. Exotic. Absolutely delicious.

Meursault-Blagny Cuvée du Myosotis 1er Cru Sourced from the commune of Blagny, legally classified within the confines of Meursault, this is a thrilling wine of strident length, latent power and an alloyed, ball bearing-like precision. It rolls through the mouth, staining the cheeks with riffs on apricot pith, candied lemon rind, dried mango and a toasted melody of assorted nuts. There is plenty of oak sitting on this, boding well for its procession into a long future in the cellar. A Meursault for the ages, in the hands of a master.

LAURENT PONSOT 1er Cru Cuvée de la Centaurée , Meursault-Charmes

Product Description: A sunny-side parcel with real finesse. Drawn from a mere 0.5-hectare plot planted in 1998, Moreau’s Vaudésir 2023 is a fine-boned, mineral-driven expression of Grand Cru Chablis. This parcel sits near the top of the slope with south-east exposure—capturing morning sun while preserving freshness. The fruit is handled with restraint: fermentation in stainless steel, followed by élevage in seasoned oak to bring textural depth without overt influence. The result is poised and detailed. Citrus, white peach and saline florals meet a fine, crystalline texture and quiet persistence. Compared to Moreau’s more muscular bottlings, Vaudésir carries itself with elegance and lift—a Grand Cru that speaks in clear, articulate tones rather than volume. Tasting Notes NOSE – Floral and refined White peach, acacia and citrus zest, with a subtle note of algae and fine oak. PALATE – Textural and mineral Medium weight and precise, layered with clean acidity and slate-like energy. FINISH – Balanced and complex Refined and persistent, with a mineral finish that unfolds slowly and cleanly. Reviews & Accolades “There is both fine intensity and a lovely texture to the mineral-driven medium weight flavors that deliver very good length on the balanced, refined and notably more complex finale. Lovely.” – Burghound, (91–93)/2030+, October 2024

Product Description: A steep-slope Grand Cru with quiet depth and evolving precision. The 2023 Chablis Grand Cru ‘Blanchot’ from Domaine Christian Moreau Père et Fils is sourced from a minuscule 0.10-hectare parcel perched near the top of the Blanchot slope. With its cooler, east-facing exposure and white limestone soils, this site brings a poised, elegant profile to the domaine’s lineup of Grands Crus. In 2023, the wine shows a floral and exotic-tinged nose—passionfruit, white orchard fruits, and a touch of quinine—lifted by finely judged oak. It’s richer and more voluminous than expected from such a cool site, yet still grounded by minerality. While already expressive, it promises greater depth with time in bottle. Drink from 2030+. Chardonnay. Aged partially in oak. Serve with butter-poached lobster, turbot with fennel, or white asparagus. Tasting Notes NOSE – Floral and exotic Passionfruit, white peach, and a hint of quinine overlaid with light oak. PALATE – Plush and mineral Generous texture with orchard fruit and a core of limestone tension. FINISH – Long and balanced Persistent finish with gentle weight and developing complexity. Reviews & Accolades Very rich, even plush, medium-bodied flavors... more depth should reasonably develop if given a chance. – Burghound, Burghound.com, (90–93) (October 2024)
