Meursault Cuvee Charles Maxime 2023

(from the Domaine founders of Charles Giraud and Maxime Latour - the fruit derives from multiple lieux-dits that include Les Corbins, Le Cromin, Les Chevalieres, Les Crotots, Les Vireuils, Les Pelles, Le Limozin and Les Malpoiriers). Smoky aromas of acacia blossom, toasted nuts, citrus confit and pear are trimmed in all but invisible wood. There is notably better volume and richness to the even punchier medium weight flavors that possess a caressing texture that contrasts with the bright, lemony, clean dry and focused finale. This is very good for its level and also worth checking out.

About Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
