2023 Marthe Henry Boillot Meursault Sous la Velle, Cote de Beaune, France
$180.00
Marthe’s top wine is produced in the exact same way as seen with all of her other whites. Chardonnay is pressed and feeds in to barrels of old French oak where alcoholic fermentation takes place. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally, after which the wine sees an 18-month period of ageing on fine lees, in barrel.
Tasting Note An absolutely stunning example of village Meursault, in this case exclusively from the Sous la Velle terroir, planted at old vines. It offers concentrated notes of ripe, fleshy fruit such as white peach and apricot. There’s good weight on the attack, a full-bodied palate which delivers a round, airy texture with flavours of golden apple, butter and sweet spices ending on an elegant silky finish.
