Domaine de La Galopière - Meursault - Les Chevalières - Blanc - 2022

Wine:

At the same altitude as the 1er Crus and set on very limestone-rich soil, the 2022 white Meursault Les Chevalières comes from one of the most renowned terroirs in the appellation, shared by illustrious winemakers like Coche-Dury. From the start, this wine delights with its great purity and particularly fresh nose, with a touch of moderate toasted-grilled oak. The rich body, with a very fine acidic trail that balances the oak, offers a very creamy and vanilla-laden indulgence. A bottle to be enjoyed leisurely over 5 to 8 years. Rated 94/100 by the Committee.

Vinification:

Hand harvested, whole grapes pressed. Traditional vinification and alcoholic fermentation.
Aged for an average of 12 months.

Color:

Bright yellow with good intensity.

Nose:

Fresh and pure, carried by pastry and toasted notes.

Palate:

Rich and creamy with sparkling fruit, this delicious wine delivers a delicate, finely acidic juice.

Temperature:

Food and wine pairing:

Roast turkey with champagne sauce, braised ham, roast veal with mustard.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2029, and even longer for enthusiasts.

It is always a joy and a pride to discover new talent, especially in Burgundy where availability is scarce, and Domaine de la Galopière is one of our newest gems.

Established on 11 hectares in the Côte de Beaune, this estate boasts high-quality plots in Meursault, Savigny, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Pommard. We immediately recognized their potential and selected these two cuvées for their outstanding value and pleasure.
