Meursault Charmes 1er cru 2022 - Louis jadot
Great Bourgogne estate
95/100 James Suckling
Tasted in 2024 - “From the upper part of the Premier Cru slope, where temperatures are a little cooler, this elegant, fairly full-bodied wine has retained its freshness and acidity in a warm vintage. It is mellow, layered and velvety, with nuances of baked apple, vanilla and nutmeg, and a persistent finish. Drink now or cellar.”
GEOGRAPHICAL SITUATION
Meursault, in the south of the Côte de Beaune, is renowned for its great white wines. Its vineyard is spread out on slopes between 230 and 360 meters of altitude.
CHARACTERISTICS
Nice first growth resting on a magnesian limestone soil. It is located on brown soils in different layers on top of the mother rock from the bottom of the hillside to mid-slope. The vineyard faces east.
VINIFICATION AND MATURATION
- The grapes are harvested manually in small crates in order to preserve the integrity of the fruit. The grapes are then gently pressed then fermented in barrels from our cooperage, a third of which are new. The maturing lasts 15 months on fine lees before preparation for bottling.
- Serving temperature : 12-14 C°.
