Meursault
Poruzots 1er Cru: The vineyard is located within the
Bouchères
and occupies merely 11 ha 43 a 78 ca. It is one of
Meursault's
best 1er crus. It is naturally severe while remaining
gentle.
It possesses a « square roundness », as we say
in
Bourgogne, reveals a note of silex and is never harsh. It
goes
well with fresh-water fish and some soft cooked cheeses, such
as
the comté or the Cîteaux.
Bourgogne Chardonnay: A very floral and fresh wine, it
is quite
balanced and simple. You may drink
this wine with sausage, ham in
sauce,
andouillettes or goat cheese. Best within 5 years.
Bourgogne Aligoté : The colour
is between pale gold-green and
gold-green. It
reveals floral, sometimes vegetal nuances (linden).
You may drink it cool with apperitif or oysters... Best
within 5
years.
Meursault
Perrières, 1er Cru : The vines are planted in a rocky
soil,
near old quarries (carrières). It is a vintage
wine that reaches its
full potential with age. It is
mineral, spicy, with hints of pepper.
It is also powerful/rich.
The M. Perrières is firm (structuré), limpid
and
redolent with fine aromas. Its depth (complexité) makes
it perfect
for lobster (homard), crayfish (langouste), foie gras
and kid game
