- 4 premiers crus: Bouchères, Les Charmes, Les Perrières and Poruzot.
The production is 50 to 60,000 bottles per year, and the wines are extremely sought after.
- Wine
The vineyards of Meursault, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, lay on an exceptional terroir between calcareous and marl soils. White Meursault has a pale gold color with greenish tones. The nose is of great delicacy, as well as a complexity (many and varied flavors, changing depending on the climate). In the mouth, the white Meursault has a rare density, a fine and deep structure. This is a very harmonious wine, whose balances are perfect (fat / acidity, floral and mineral aromas).
