Sylvain Dussort - Meursault Vieilles Vignes 2018
15,5/20
Bettane & Desseauve
In its youth, this Meursault evokes ripe grapes, with vegetal and floral aromas. After a few years' ageing, the palate becomes rich and unctuous, while remaining very fresh, with notes of honey and hazelnut. A blend of several parcels over 50 years old, the diversity of terroirs brings complexity and harmony to this astonishing Meursault.

About the domain :
Born of winegrower and cooper parents, Sylvain Dussort and his wife set up in 1982, and now farm 6.5 hectares in regional and village appellations in Meursault and Chorey-lès-Beaune. Their farming methods are opposed to systematic pest control, and vinification uses only indigenous yeasts, in the Burgundian tradition, with barrel ageing. Sylvain is also an advocate of the new Bourgogne Côte d'Or appellation, which he proudly claims as of the 2017 vintage.
