Tasting

To the eye
A deep straw-gold colour, with great brilliance and slightly golden highlights.

Nose
A powerful and elegant bouquet. It features notes of fresh butter, toasted hazelnut and white flowers (hawthorn). Once aerated, it reveals a ‘stony’ and salty character, typical of the great terroirs of Meursault.

Palate
The attack is broad and enveloping, offering impressive volume on the palate. The wine is rich and savoury, yet immediately held together by a very firm backbone of acidity. This is a wine of great texture, where the richness of the fruit is balanced by a noble bitterness on the finish that lends it length.

Pairing
A wine that calls for a meal: Bresse chicken in cream sauce, a fillet of sole in beurre blanc, or a 24-month-aged Comté.

Aging potential
Thanks to the quality of the old vines and the meticulous care taken during ageing, this 2023 has remarkable ageing potential for a Côte d’Or Burgundy.

Your questions, our answers.

Does the ripeness of the 2023 vintage suggest a wine that may lack freshness?

On the contrary, the description highlights exceptional ripeness combined with remarkable acidity. The appeal of this 2023 therefore lies in the balance between ripeness and freshness, rather than in richness alone.

Does fermentation in barrels mean that the oak flavor dominates?

Fermentation in oak barrels is mentioned, but no tasting notes specify the intensity of the oak influence. This winemaking choice alone is therefore not enough to conclude that the oak flavor dominates.

Can Hautes Coutures be considered the equivalent of one of the estate’s Premier Crus?

The cuvée receives the same care as the Premier Crus, which indicates the attention devoted to its production. This does not mean that it has the same classification or the same tasting profile.

Is this a good choice for exploring Meursault without choosing a wine from the Meursault appellation?

Yes, based on the origin of its grapes: the description places the vines in the commune of Meursault, at the foot of the slope, on dense limestone marl. However, this provenance should be distinguished from its appellation, which remains Bourgogne Côte d’Or.

What does this cuvée offer if I prioritize texture over aromas alone?

The description specifically emphasizes a rich, structured phenolic texture, linked to the long pressing and barrel fermentation. This is therefore an aspect to focus on when tasting, without assuming a creamy texture or particular aromas that are not described.
