Pascal Clément Meursault 2018

Meursault, Côte de Beaune, Côte d'Or, Burgundy, FranceBorn into a family of growers and winemakers, Pascal had more than 20 vintages working experience in Bourgogne before he started his own project in 2012. Based in Savigny-les-Beaune, where he owns a half hectare organic vineyard, he farms 10 ha across 29 appellations in Bourgogne for his wines. 80% of his production is white wine, a passion honed by his years of winemaking at Coche Dury, amongst others. He farms with no chemicals, does native ferment in older, larger barrels, employs MLF, and never uses bâtonnage in his wines, leaving them on full lees after pressing. True to style, and vintage, this is a full, powerful white, with lemon curd, brown butter, and green apple layered with toasted hazelnuts. There is a brace of acidity which holds this aloft, through a lingering, nutty, saline finish. Drink now, with butter drawn lobster, or let rest in your cellar.Tasted: 29 January 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
