Information
Situated in Meursault, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, the estate is expertly run by Vincent Bouzereau and his wife Aline, who are also discerning gourmets and have added new buildings to their estate. Like many in this world, wine runs in the veins of this producer whose winegrowing origins date back to the 19th century. As for Aline Bouzereau, her passion for wine comes from her ancestors, who were Burgundy wine merchants, and from her father, a skilled wine taster. Today, Vincent and Aline Bouzereau are delighted to see their six children developing a taste for this world. Two of them, Louis and Clotilde, have joined the estate.
Conscious of the natural heritage they possess (“a gift from God”), the Bouzereau family spare no effort, working in the vineyard all year round and caring for it using integrated pest management. In the cellar, patience and diligence are essential. Alcoholic fermentation is triggered by the naturally present yeasts. This helps to preserve the character of the vintage and the terroir. The wines are matured in oak barrels for 10 to 18 months, depending on the cuvée. Bottling takes place after little or no filtration respecting the lunar calendar.
This estate has around ten hectares spread over eight villages, producing fine wines made with talent, passion, tradition and respect. Vincent and Aline are keen to keep their prices reasonable in relation to the market, so that their customers can continue to enjoy their wines. For winelovers, that means unbeatable value for money!
Blended from twelve plots spread throughout Meursault, this cuvée perfectly represents the style of this beautiful Côte de Beaune village. Around forty years old, the Chardonnay vines stretch across the south-east facing slope on a limestone-clay soil and are grown using as few chemicals as possible. The hand-harvested grapes are pressed when they arrive at the cellar and their must ferments in oak barrels at cellar temperature thanks to natural yeasts. The wine is bottled after ageing for fifteen to eighteen months in barrels with the proportion of new wood standing at 30%.
This golden Meursault boasts beautiful notes of white flowers, peaches, almonds and fresh butter. On the palate, this wine is ample with a beautiful fattiness that makes way for a slight refreshing bitterness in the finish. This is a wine to drink when it is between four to six years old with roasted poultry or scallops and leek fondue.
