Meursault 2024
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
Full-bodied dry white wine assembled from multiple sites across this large and diverse village appellation. Rigorous sorting and careful vinification are followed by aging in oak barrels, with malolactic fermentation controlled to ensure a lively sensation on the palate.
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage was challenging and ultimately saw severely reduced yields due to excessive rainfall with warm temperatures, leading to poor flowering and uneven fruit set and pressure from downy mildew. Harvest began with dry weather on September 13th and the yields, while small, arrived in very good condition.
Tasting Note
Full and expansive upon entry, with subtle blend of citrus, floral, and hazelnut essence, then a long, elegant finish.

About the Grape
Chardonnay
Though it has a distinctive profile, Chardonnay reflects other factors such as soil composition and vinification technique. Chardonnay is a reliable, hardy and prolific vine whose only real vulnerabilities are frost and uneven development of fruit.
