Vintage: | 2020 |
---|---|
Description: | Meursault is a limpid and brilliant lightly accented gold-green, canary yellow or polished bronze-gold depending on its age. The nose evokes the scent of ripe bunches of grapes. When young, toasted almonds and hazelnuts compete with hawthorn, elderberries, bracken, lime blossom and verbena. The nose also features butter, honey, citrus fruits and flint. On the palate, a rich and opulent wine, with delicious and delightful hazelnut notes, achieving a superbly silky balance between unctuousness and freshness. With a long and structured finish, a Meursault wine needs time to mature. It's an excellent white for laying down. Its aromatic power and exceptional balance between richness and acidity make this one of the great wines of Burgundy. It will go with almost any fine food without blushes. Finely textured fish and meats, grilled shellfish and shellfish in sauce all work well with the lively and supple balance of Meursault. Even blue cheeses and foie gras are an immediate and happy match. There are several schools of thought on the etymology of Meursault without any clear winners, but according to one theory, its wines are so brilliant that they compete with the sun: "Meurs soleil!" |
