Meursault Rouge 2017

• 75cl bottle

Selected from a hectare of Meursault vineyards located to the north of the village, next to Vonay, unusually planted with Pinot Noir. Here, the soils contain more clay, which leads to the wines having deep colour, powerful tannins and good ageing potential.

Vintage

The 2017 vintage was very dry, but was relatively cool. Luckily, the frost damage was minimal and a combination of moderate day temperatures and cool evenings resulted in relatively good yield and wonderful flavour concentration.

Winemaking

Grapes are vinified in open vats for around 4 weeks, which brings out all the expressions of the terroir.

Enjoy with:

• Grilled and Roasted Red Meats
• Grilled and Roasted White Meats
• Pizza/Pasta
• Mild Creamy Cheeses
