2022 Meursault, Joseph Drouhin, Burgundy

Description

The 2022 Meursault Village was picked from August 22 until September 10, depending on where the fruit is sourced (from 16 batches), though blending only takes place before racking. Following Drouhin’s other whites, I can imagine the nose will have broad appeal, offering touches of white peach and orange pith, more floral than the Puligny Village. The palate is well-balanced with good weight. It’s not complex per se and quite linear towards the finish, but it needs a little more intricacy.

Drink 2024 - 2033

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
