2009 Meursault

Add to Cart$54In stock

A blend from 3 plots across Meursault, this is a well-balanced and typical Chardonnay from that area — dry and mellow, but also ample, classy, and fruity.

  • Although a year older, Pierre Morey’s 2009 Meursault seems younger than the more opulent 2010. The clean, restrained nose yields mostly distant hints of grapefruit before opening up to suggest honey and nougat. Bright acidity balances elegant, grapey fruit flavors on the palate. Not yet revealing much, but with the structure to suggest it will cellar well, eventually becoming more expansive.

    Food pairing: Oysters, mussels, fish—grilled or meunière
