Meursault 1er Cru - Genevrières 2022

Site : a few kilometers south of Beaune, in the prestigious area known as Côte des Blancs (slope of the whites). This Premier Cru vineyard is located south-west of the village, in the southern part of the Meursault appellation.

History & tradition : the etymology of the appellation derives from "genevrier" (juniper), a shrub with prickly needles and purple berries which enjoys the limestone soils of the region.

"Meursault Premier Cru Genevrières reveals a nice pale yellow colour. 

The nose, concentrated and elegant, is reminiscent of almond, warm bread just out of the oven, then, fine spice and finally grilled dried fruit.

The mouth, both ample and generous, develops aromas of vanilla mingling with citrus notes. Very long aftertaste".
