2022 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées, Michel Lafarge

2022 Meursault Vendanges Sélectionnées, Michel Lafarge

Only in years of relative abundance and quality do the domaine make this cuvée which is a selection of fruit from only the oldest vines (70-75 years old). They sit just below Santenots-du-Milieu, and the wine shows an even greater level of intensity and length than the already impressive village Meursault.

Tasting notes

Made from the top of Marcausse and Les Vignes Blanches, older vines. Fresh pale lemon. A much finer bouquet than the regular Meursault. A whiff of fennel rather than the full liquorice. White fruit, good energy levels, citrus and fennel, with a long finish. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted: December 2023.
