Citrus Blossom, Crisp Pear, Crushed Chalk, and High-Altitude Meursault Precision

The 2024 Domaine Raymond Dupont-Fahn Meursault "Les Clous" is a tensile, exquisitely defined Chardonnay from one of the highest hillside terroirs in Meursault. It reveals aromas of crisp pear, lemon zest, white flowers, and flinty wet stone. Medium-bodied and energetic, it balances delicate orchard fruit with racy limestone acidity and subtle oak framing, finishing pristine, mouth-watering, and deeply mineral.

Highlights

  • 100% Chardonnay harvested from "Les Clous," one of Meursault's highest and coolest hillside lieu-dits, renowned for yielding chiselled wines with remarkable tension.
  • Planted on shallow, hard Bathonian limestone and white marl soils, imparting a distinct flinty minerality and laser-sharp structural backbone.
  • Crafted by Raymond Dupont-Fahn, renowned for his minimalist, tension-led cellar philosophy that emphasizes early picking and minimal bâtonnage over heavy, buttery richness.
  • Aged for approximately 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels with modest new wood usage (~15–20%) to build textural refinement without masking terroir clarity.
  • From the classically styled, energetic 2024 Burgundy harvest; displays radiant aromatic purity today alongside the limestone stamina to age effortlessly through 2034+.

Tasting Notes

Bright, pale straw with brilliant green glints, it opens with high-toned, chiselled aromas of fresh lemon peel, crunchy green orchard apples, and white peach, laced with white hawthorn blossoms, crushed chalk, and a faint kiss of hazelnut brioche. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, linear, and taut, pairing crystalline citrus and orchard fruit with piercing limestone acidity and a discreet creamy core, closing on a long, mouth-watering, and distinctly saline mineral finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve chilled at 10–12°C in standard white Burgundy stemware.
  • Decanting: Best enjoyed with 15 to 20 minutes of gentle aeration in the glass to allow its tight citrus, floral perfume, and mineral drive to unfold; pairs exquisitely with seared scallops, grilled dover sole with lemon herb butter, roasted poultry, or delicate soft cheeses. Optimal drinking window now through 2034+.
