The wine region of Meursault
Burgundian summit of ample great whites: signature Chardonnay reigns exclusively in whites — green-gold with bronze glints, rich and unctuous with almond, toasted hazelnut, honey, candied citrus, hawthorn, lime blossom and a flinty mineral signature, richness and chiselled acidity, barrel-aged. Exceptional power-freshness balance and great ageing (8-15 years). Village AOC (1937, ~400 ha) south of Beaune, limestone marls. Renowned Premiers Crus (Perrières, Genevrières, Charmes).
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Serious
A Bordeaux term for small pebbles from the Pyrenees, eroded, rounded and transported by the Garonne to Aquitaine. They are mainly found on the left bank in the area.... known as the Graves, and further downstream in the Médoc. By extension, gravel is found in other regions, brought by other rivers or even glaciers.
