Crisp White Peach, Crushed Flint, Citrus Blossom, and Unrivaled Perrières Tension

The 2024 David Moret Meursault 1er Cru "Les Perrières" is a monumental, chiseled Chardonnay from Meursault’s undisputed pinnacle Premier Cru. It displays crystalline aromas of crisp white peach, lemon zest, white acacia blossom, crushed flint, and delicate toasted hazelnut. Medium-to-full-bodied and razor-sharp, it matches immense concentration with electric limestone acidity, concluding on a persistent, mouth-watering, and saline mineral finish.

Highlights

  • 100% Chardonnay sourced from "Les Perrières," universally recognized as Meursault's greatest Premier Cru, boasting Grand Cru caliber and pedigree.
  • Grown on an ancient limestone quarry site composed of hard Bathonian limestone and razor-thin, rocky stony topsoils, imparting unparalleled mineral cut and structural tension.
  • Crafted by David Moret, the renowned Beaune-based boutique micro-négociant celebrated for his meticulous parcel selection and masterly elevage of Côte de Beaune terroirs.
  • Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for approximately 11 to 12 months in French oak barrels (around 30% new oak) followed by stainless steel settling to harmonize oak spice and primary fruit tension.
  • From the vibrant, classically proportioned 2024 Burgundy harvest; delivers astonishing purity and dry extract today with the architecture to cellar effortlessly through 2038+.

Tasting Notes

Pale, brilliant gold with crystalline green glints, it reveals a commanding, laser-focused bouquet of crisp white peach, Meyer lemon oil, and green orchard apple, interwoven with white acacia blossom, crushed flint, wet limestone, and faint nuances of toasted hazelnut. The palate is full-bodied, structured, and razor-sharp, delivering dense fruit concentration across a surging core of electric limestone acidity, culminating in a monumental, salivating, and distinctly saline finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve cellar-cool at 11–13°C in generous Grand Cru white Burgundy stemware.
  • Decanting: Decant for 25 to 35 minutes prior to serving to allow its muscular limestone framework and refined floral aromatics to unfurl; pairs exquisitely with line-caught sea bass, butter-poached lobster, roasted sweetbreads, or aged Comté. Optimal drinking window now through 2038+.
