Since the Cistercian era, this legendary terroir has produced exceptional white wines of remarkable diversity. As a result, Meursault’s many Premier Cru Climats offer an incomparable variety of aromas, flavors, and textures, even though the sun exposure is generally consistent across the region. This lovely white wine is lively and subtle—enjoy it before the holidays! • Please note: limited quantities available.

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots spanning 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate viticultural heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who previously managed Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million produced here each year; the majority of production comes from purchased grapes for the great reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites, other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both white and red wines in recent vintages.
