Goedhuis, January 2024
A very pleasant Meursault from a parcel of land that sits just above the 1er cru vineyards. With a hint of earthiness on the nose, the palate balances breadth and richness with a rewarding steeliness and freshness. The finish has terrific length making it a beautiful addition to Justin’s range for us this year.
Region
Meursault
Meursault is the first great white wine area that one stumbles upon on leaving Beaune. Unlike other white dominated appellations in Burgundy, Meursault has no grand cru vineyards. It nonetheless has significant flair and power which make up for this deficiency. Indeed, if tasted blind some of these wines could even surpass other Burgundian grand crus. They are no fainting daisies. This may partially be due to Meursault's lower water table which enables the roots to delve deep in the soil picking up many trace minerals and which further stresses the vines. In addition, the cellars are more profound and cooler, enabling long fermentations, which increase complexity and longevity. Some interesting red wines are also made.
