Description: Les Seuvrées sits just below the grand cru Mazoyeres-Chambertin on the slope, bordering the northern edge of Morey-Saint-Denis.

Lucien Muzard, Meursault "Les Meix Chavaux" 2022

Regular Retail: $, YOUR PRICE!: $
Region: Burgundy, France
Grapes: Chardonnay
Description: From a .75 hectares parcel in Meursault les Meix Chavaux, bordering Auxey-Duresses. Three equal parts were planted in 2001, 1988 and 1935. Given the location near Auxey Duresses, vineyards are cooler and thus allowed to ripen longer on the vine. As a result, it gives the wine good focus, minerality and tension. Classic Meursault aromas of ripe apples, honey, and hazelnuts.

Regular Retail: $, YOUR PRICE!: $

Description: Planted in 1951, Bitouzet’s third of a hectare of Chardonnay here yields a more mineral-driven, structurally stricter wine than Les Corbins, yet one which still shows ample flesh despite its youthful reticence, developing with time into a rich, well-balanced wine with a long finish. It spends 16 months in 20% new oak and is bottled after the second winter following harvest.

The 2020 is pure and sensual to the core - a total pleasure bomb."
