Good to Know: The Meursault wine often displays a vibrant and clear green-gold hue, but depending on its age, it may vary in shades from canary yellow to polished bronze-gold. Its aroma invokes the scent of ripe grapes. In young wines, one can detect notes of toasted almonds and hazelnuts, along with hints of hawthorn, elderberry, fern, lime blossom, or verbena. The nose also captures a delightful blend of butter, honey, citrus fruits, and flint. On the palate, this wine delivers a luxurious and velvety experience, offering a delightful hazelnut flavor that perfectly balances creaminess and freshness, showcasing a wide range of smoothness.
