Meursault Genevrieres 1er 2023

Meursault Genevrieres 1er Cru is produced in the Meursault appellation, located in the Côte de Beaune subregion of Burgundy, France. This vineyard is renowned for its exceptional terroir and prestigious classification as a Premier Cru site.

The wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, the signature white grape variety of Burgundy, known for producing rich and complex white wines.

Boyer-Martenot employs traditional Burgundian winemaking techniques for this Premier Cru white wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to ensure quality. Fermentation typically takes place in oak barrels, with a portion of new oak used to enhance complexity and structure. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is aged on its lees for several months to develop richness and texture before bottling.

Meursault Genevrieres 1er Cru by Boyer-Martenot offers a luminous golden color with aromas of ripe orchard fruits, toasted hazelnuts, and subtle floral hints. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-balanced, featuring flavors of white peach, citrus zest, and a mineral undertone. The finish is long and elegant, marked by a creamy texture and refined acidity.

This wine pairs excellently with a variety of dishes, including:

• Roasted poultry with herbs
• Grilled or sautéed seafood, especially scallops and lobster
• Rich creamy cheeses such as Brie or Comté
• Lightly seasoned white meats
• Vegetable gratins and mushroom dishes
