The estate and the wine |
|
|
A hidden gem and Selection Committee favourite, Domaine Rion crafts exceptional wines from some of the finest terroirs in the Côte-d'Or. This family-run estate boasts an invaluable heritage with vineyards in Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Beaune, and Meursault. |

|
The 2022 White Meursault Sous la Velle is a quintessential example of the appellation, a refined and subtle Chardonnay with delicate toasted notes from its aging, sourced from a parcel south of the village. Precise and elegant, it showcases the vintage's beautiful ripeness, with hints of brioche, white fruits, and light floral aromas. It is expected to gain richness and texture over time. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
