Our View:
Delicious, crisp and beautifully balanced white Burgundy from a well respected producer. Drinking well now and will to develop in richness and complexity in bottle for years to come.
The Wine:
Meursault is the centre of the four communes (Meursault, Blagny, Chassagne and Puligny) comprising that part of the Côte de Beaune known as the «Côte des Blancs», named for the quality and predominance of its white wines. Meursault's vineyards are the most extensive of the Côte de Beaune. There are approximately 30 percent in nine Premiers Crus and 70 percent in village vineyards.
The vineyards are spread over gentle slopes, between 230 and 360 metres above sea level. The eastern orientation is ideal, allowing maximum sunlight.
Chalky soils with white marl is best suited to the Chardonnay grape.
Meursault is exclusively made with Chardonnay grapes.
Grapes are harvested by hand and put in small cases in order not to damage the fruits. Grapes are pressed softly, they ferment in oak barrels produced by our cooperage. 1/3 are new barrels. Aging usually lasts 15 months on fine lees before bottling.
Tasting Note:
Full and expansive upon entry, with subtle blend of citrus, floral, and hazelnut essence, then a long elegant finish.

What the critics say:
93 points - Decanter
Crisp, refreshing, and linear, this has a beautiful gooseberry and quince fruit character with hints of a flinty minerality. It is perhaps less rich than the white from Beaune Grèves. There is a nice tension on the palate, but with time there is a rich, almost fat impression as the wine opens up. From a one-hectare parcel that Jadot owns at the same elevation as Meursault Perrières.
