2018 Maison Leroy Les Genevrieres Meursault 1er Cru, Burgundy, France
$2,200.00
2018 Maison Leroy Les Genevrières Meursault 1er Cru is crafted from meticulously farmed, old-vine Chardonnay in one of Meursault’s finest premier cru sites. The fruit is hand-harvested and undergoes natural yeast fermentation with extended skin contact and partial malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place in a combination of new and older French oak barrels for around 18 months, with minimal intervention and no filtration. The result is a deeply textured, precise wine showing rich minerality, bright acidity, and complex layers of citrus, stone fruit, and toasted almond.
