Remoissenet Père et Fils, Meursault
Remoissenet’s Meursault is a gorgeous Premier Cru white Burgundy that is already strutting its luxurious stuff after a 45-minute decant. The nose initially greets you with heaps of lemon curd, lime blossom, honeysuckle, pineapple, and plush apricot while also exuding aromas like fresh butter, toasted almonds, baking spice, and vanilla bean from its extended lees contact and barrel aging. It’s a dense, yet always tense, Chardonnay that delivers “Charmes” hedonism and “Perrières” precision. Its medium-plus body provides delicious extraction and weight while crackling with crushed-stone minerality and pronounced acidity into the long finish. It’s a luxury wine built for your largest Burgundy stems and a rich main course, to be enjoyed now through 2030. Cheers!
