White Burgundy Dynamite:
2014 Coche-Dury Meursault

Coche-Dury's Meursault may very well be the greatest village wine on earth. There are Grand Crus that it puts to shame.

Cult Burgundy Brilliance: 2020 Anne Boisson Meursault Chevalières

Chevalières is a tension-filled, elegant, and incredibly precise white Burgundy. It has no trouble competing with the top 1er Crus.

"This is also very good for its level" -2021 Ballot-Millot Meursault

The 2021 Meursault is very impressive. It's lifted and rich with a tactile minerality. Stylistically, Ballot-Millot falls between the reductive style of Coche and Roulot and the voluptuous, oily style of old-school Meursault producers.

Magic in Meursault
2018 Pierre Boisson Grands Charrons

The Boisson family makes Meursault exactly as we like it: intensely mineral, nervy, and with perfectly-judged richness. 

The Grands Charrons is always one of the high points of the lineup. 

"This is lovely" - Burghound
2018 Lafon Meursault

"This is excellent" -Burghound
2017 Lafon Meursault Clos de la Barre

Lafon has never been better. Along with Roulot and Coche-Dury, Lafon is the standard-bearer of Meursault. His 2017s show this benchmark in top form.

2017 Lafon Meursault Clos de la Baronne

You'd have to look towards Coche and Roulot. In recent vintages, it's become clear that Lafon is at the top of his game.

"Chiseled and energetic"
2017 Henri Germain Meursault

Henri Germain's Meursaults may cruise under the radar, but they are some of the most exciting examples of the appellation.

"This is excellent"
- 2017 Lafon Meursault 1er Cru Les Porusots

Lafon's 2017 Porusots is epic.

The wine is a finely etched and tension-filled powerhouse.

In 2017, Roulot took things to another level. The collection dazzles, reaching a point that flirts with perfection.

Punching Above Its Weight Class:
2017 Ballot Millot Meursault Les Criots

If 2014 represented a breakthrough vintage for Ballot Millot, 2017 cements just how important this domaine is destined to become in Burgundy. For us, the outrageous quality of Ballot Millot's 2017 shines brightest at the lower end. Their Perrières and other Meursault 1er Crus are great, but at the villages level, the quality is shocking.

2017 Pierre Boisson Meursault Grands Charrons

The Boisson family makes Meursault exactly as we like it: intensely mineral, nervy, and with perfectly-judged richness. The Grands Charrons is always one of the high points of the lineup.

Roulot is producing some of the most riveting and mineral-driven expressions of Chardonnay on the planet. In 2017, the domaine takes things to another level. The collection dazzles reaching a point that flirts with perfection. They are clear, balanced and precise.

"Superb" - Neil Martin, Vinous Media
2017 Ballot Millot Meursault 1er Cru Perrières

The 1er Cru Perrières is holy ground for Chardonnay. Meursault doesn’t have any Grand Crus, but there’s no doubt that Perrières can rival Grand Crus from other villages.

Don't Miss White Burgundy
2017 Heitz-Lochardet Meursault "Les Gruyaches"

With each vintage, Heitz-Lochardet seems to go from strength to strength. The 2017s are jaw-dropping.

2017 Coche-Dury Bourgogne Blanc & Meursault

There's nothing like the wines of Coche-Dury. They exist on a plane of their own. Coche's wines work on a very elite level, and you don't need to look far up the hierarchy to witness undeniable proof of this.

2013 Roulot Meursault Villages

Roulot produced simply magical 2013s. Roulot's work with Chardonnay is on another plane. No one renders the grape with such a riveting expression - razor sharp, indisputably noble, and emphatically mineral.

"This is lovely and a classic example"
- 2017 Heitz-Lochardet Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrieres

It's been fun to watch Heitz-Lochardet start to really take off. It seems like everyone I give a bottle to comes back wanting a half-dozen more.

2014 Lafon Meursault Clos de la Baronne

Lafon continues to go from strength to strength. His 2014s are breathtaking.

Under-The-Radar Meursault Star:
2014 Genot-Boulanger Meursault 1er Cru Les Bouchères

We've been huge fans of Génot-Boulanger's recent vintages, but their 2014s demand the attention of a larger audience. The wines are a pitch-perfect expression of the vintage, with amazing concentration, clarity and harmony. The lineup perfectly captures all of the precision and lifted elegance that made 2014 a home run for White Burgs.

This is one of those emails that I write with trepidation.
