Surprisingly enough for an appellation of this quality, no Grand Cru exists, however the high quality of the 1er Cru more then compensates for this. The vineyard of Meursault \"Charmes\" is located just to the south of the village and is recognised to be one of the finest plots producing the Meursault appellation. The well-drained mineral soil is ideally-suited to the type of Chardonnay grown here and the resultant wine is opulent and perfumed with very ripe peach, apple, and nut flavours. A wonderful finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Ageing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFermentation\u003cbr\u003e\nTraditional in oak barrels with complete malolactic fermentation.\u003cbr\u003e\nAgeing\u003cbr\u003e\n8 to 10 months ageing in oak barrels, 50% new.\u003cbr\u003e\nBarrels\u003cbr\u003e\nLouis Latour cooperage, French oak, medium toasted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWine tasting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTasting Note\u003cbr\u003e\nOur Meursault 1er Cru 'Charmes' 2022 has a bright and pale gold colour.
