Premier cru
In the heart of the Côte de Beaune, Meursault lies at the foot of the vineyards. Its clay-limestone soils and east-to-south exposure give the wines remarkable balance and elegance.
The vine that produces this wine grows within Meursault’s largest Premier Cru climat. Its clay-limestone soil gives structure and typicity to the wine — a perfect harmony between geology, grape variety, and exposure.
Meursault-Charmes is a generous and convivial wine. Gentle in appearance, it is well-structured, full-bodied, powerful yet balanced, with a distinct mineral backbone. Rich on the palate, it finishes with great finesse and elegance.
The structure and power of this wine make it a perfect partner for fish, shellfish, or poultry in cream sauce. On the cheese board, it favours bold cheeses such as Époisses, Munster, or Roquefort.
