WINE DESCRIPTION

Joseph Drouhin Meursault 1er Cru 'Perrières' is a premium white wine produced by the renowned Burgundy producer Joseph Drouhin. The wine comes from the Meursault appellation, which is known for producing some of the finest white wines in the world. The Perrières vineyard, where the grapes are sourced, is located on a steep slope with a unique soil composition that gives the wine its distinct character. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is rich and full-bodied, with notes of citrus, honey, and toasted nuts, making it a perfect pairing for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
