Understanding Domaine Tessier, Meursault Premier Cru, Charmes Dessus, Burgundy
The Charmes Dessus vineyard, with its prime location and ideal soil composition, provides a perfect foundation for expressing the quintessence of Chardonnay. Arnaud Tessier's commitment to sustainable viticulture and a hands-on approach in the vineyard ensures the health and balance of the vines, which is reflected in the quality of the fruit. Fermentation is carefully conducted in stainless-steel while the ageing process sees the wine maturing for 12 months in French oak, only a small portion of which is new. This Meursault Charmes Dessus displays ripe orchard fruit, citrus zest and a subtle minerality in a rich yet precise palate balanced by a vibrant acidity. This wine promises to evolve beautifully with time.
