2023 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes, Domaine Ballot-Millot

2023 Meursault 1er Cru Charmes, Domaine Ballot-Millot

Cellar Circle Exclusive

Smooth, silky, bright and incisive. There is a lot to like here. The Ballot-Millot vines sit at the top of the parcel right next to Lafon’s. This location gives a dialled-up minerality, setting it apart from the richer examples produced further down the slope. As classical as they come in Meursault.

Tasting notes

Pale lemon colour, with an excellent bouquet that speaks well of Charmes. This has flesh, white fruit, some oak, a sense of grip, still very muscular. Very youthful but with all the right ingredients to make a fine Charmes for at least medium term keeping. Drink from 2029-2034. Tasted Oct 2024.
