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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
