[SOLD-OUT] Vincent Girardin Meursault Narvaux 2015

A BEAUTIFUL MEURSAULT HERE - WITH PRALINE, PEAR AND SPICE FLAVOURS. FLAVOURSOME BUT REFINED AND BALANCED.

 

"A ripe assortment consists of hazelnut, citrus, pear and soft spice nuances. There is fine richness to the lively and generously proportioned flavors that exhibit a touch of salinity on the clean and dry finish. This should be approachable young." - Allen Meadows

"The vines are around the village of Meursault, above the Premier Cru parcel "Les Genevrières”. Soil : Clay and limestone with a little bit more chalk.

The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted. They are lightly pressed then in a pneumatic press at a low pressure to get a slow extraction. After a gentle racking of the must, the wine is put in French oak casks of 228 liters (15% of new oak) for both of alcoholic and malolactic fermentations with wild yeasts and wild anaerobic bacteria during 16 months." - Vincent Girardin
