NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Meursault 1er Cru 'Charmes' opens with enticing aromas of ripe orchard fruits, such as pear and apple, intertwined with notes of toasted hazelnuts, butter, and a hint of citrus zest. On the palate, it is creamy yet vibrant, with flavors of golden apple, almond, and a touch of vanilla.Ideal pairings include roasted poultry, creamy seafood dishes, or risotto. Serve slightly chilled, and this wine can age beautifully for 10–15 years, developing even greater complexity over time.
