Lucien Muzard & Fils Meursault Les Meix Chavaux 2023
Elegant Meursault with depth and finesse from the heart of Burgundy.
The wine offers a complex aroma of ripe fruit, nuts, and subtle notes of citrus and mineral undertones. The taste is full-bodied and well-balanced with a creamy texture and a long, persistent aftertaste marked by fresh acidity and a slight toasted nuance.
The grapes come from a plot midway up the slope with calcareous clay soil and southeast exposure. The vines are densely planted with 10,000 vines per hectare, some of which date back to 1935. Hand-harvested grapes are gently pressed, and the must is lightly clarified before fermentation with indigenous yeast strains. The wine is aged in 350-liter oak barrels in our underground cellars, where it undergoes full malolactic fermentation during the winter.
Meursault Les Meix Chavaux pairs excellently with fish dishes, shellfish, poultry, and creamy cheeses. Best served at 12°C and can be stored for up to 5 years.
