Meursault Vieilles Vignes - Closerie des Alisiers - 2022 - Blanc - AOC

Food pairing: It pairs ideally with fine fish such as sea bass, turbot, or sole, shellfish including lobster and langoustine, creamy poultry dishes, mushroom-based risottos or recipes, as well as soft cheeses such as Brie or well-aged Camembert.

Vintage: 2022

Taste: The bouquet is expressive and complex, with aromas of white-fleshed fruits (pear, ripe apple), citrus fruits, and more indulgent notes of fresh butter, hazelnut, and subtle vanilla, brought by careful oak ageing. On the palate, the wine is ample, round, and structured, with a creamy texture typical of Meursault. The richness of the palate is perfectly balanced by a mineral freshness, leading to a long, elegant, and delicately oaked finish.

Serving temperature: 11–13 °C

Alcohol content: 13%
