2023 Domaine Pierre Morey Meursault "Clos le Meix Tavaux", Burgundy, France

ABOUT THIS WINE

This wine comes from the monopole vineyard “Clos le Meix Tavaux,” located in Meursault. The site’s clay-limestone soils contribute both richness and structure, producing a Chardonnay that sits between the opulence of village Meursault and the precision of its Premier Crus.

Farmed biodynamically, the vines benefit from careful vineyard management that emphasizes balance and low yields. The grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed before fermentation with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels, a portion of which are new. The wine is then aged on its fine lees, which enhances texture and adds subtle complexity while preserving the purity of fruit.
