<p>Meursault Chanson, Cote De Beaune, Burgundy, France, 2022Grape Variety:ChardonnaySoil:Mix of limestone and clay.Site:Four different plots of vineyards from selected “vignerons”. Two are located on mid slope for finesse and minerality, the two others are situated around the village for more richness and depth.Vintage 2022:After a winter characterized by marked variations in temperature between January and February, spring started with mild temperatures. A sequence of cold weather in April was followed by warm temperatures in May but the lack of water was very noticeable and could not be compensated by the rainy storms of June. Summer was marked by several and long heat waves and the storms of the end of August were most welcome. The harvest at Chanson started on August 30 with a team of 100 persons and ended on September 13. 2022 vintage was quite generous both in volume and quality and the white wines are well-balanced, precise and refreshing.Vinification: After a mild pressing, this wine was vinified and aged for 12 to 14 months in oak casks in Chanson’s cellars of the XVth century. Moderate proportion of new oak.Tasting: Pale gold colour. Floral fragrances mixed with aromas of pale fleshed fruit, fresh honey and spices on a hint of minerality. Well-structured and complex.Tight and precise texture with a well-shaped acidity. Long and generous finish.Food pairing:To be enjoyed with foie gras, grilled fish, white meat and strong cheeses (Epoisses, Roquefort and Munster).Meursault Chanson, Cote De Beaune, Burgundy, France, 2022</p>
