Beaune Premier Cru Blanches Fleurs 2022, Château de Meursault

Its evocative name suits it like a glove!

With this rather confidential white appellation, Château de Meursault delivers a veritable nugget with a sparkling light gold color. The highly expressive nose reveals fine, complex aromas of citrus and ripe fruit, enhanced by lime blossom and peach blossom with a touch of vanilla. This bouquet evolves towards notes of hazelnut and toasted almond, dried apricot, honey and cinnamon. On the palate, a full-bodied wine with moderate acidity, combining minerality, richness and depth.

Tasting: 

If you drink it young, don’t hesitate to decant it to amplify its aromatic expression. But, with a little patience, it will gain complexity and opulence to give you infinite pleasure.

Pairings: 

Its freshness and floral range will be wonderful with poultry and veal in cream sauce, but it will also accompany a fine fillet of pike-perch. As it ages, it will sublimate foie gras, and is a perfect match for cheeses such as Cîteaux or Comté aged 24 months.
