This wine comes from the Meursault appellation, which is known for producing some of the finest white wines in Burgundy. The vineyard features a unique terroir with limestone-rich soils and a south-facing slope, which allows for optimal sun exposure.

This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the finesse and complexity of Burgundy wines.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and has a creamy texture that complements the flavors of honey, ripe apples, almonds, and lemon zest.
