Albert Bichot Meursaul Blanc Premier Cru Les Charmes 6 / Case

Located in the heart of the co;te de beaune meursault is one of burgundy’s flagship villages and among the most reputed. In fact meursault is often referred to as the capital of burgundy’s great whites. The les charmes premier cru is a first-class plot and easily rivals burgundy’s great white grand crus. There are two types of terroir in meursault. One is clay-based and produces opulent generous wines. The other consists of finer soil and is closer to the limestone bedrock. The latter gives a more mineral airy and chiselled wine. Our plot mostly located in the charmes dessus portion is fortunate to overlie the two terroirs and is therefore capable of producing particularly complex nectar. Tasting generous and flattering this wine features notes of candied lemon almonds white flowers and freshly baked bread. The palate is smooth and velvety without any heaviness with hints of warm brioche and spice. Long and tasty the finish mirrors the bouquet’s aromas. Food/wine
