Domaine Rougeot - Meursault 1er Cru 'Las Charmes' 2022

The 1er Cru Charmes has an outstanding complexity, elegance and minerality.

Domaine Rougeot has a long history of making superb white wines out of the famed village of Meursault. The Meursault 1er Cru "Les Charmes" is one of the most incredible Premier Cru in Meursault.

The “Les Charmes” Chardonnay has a profound gold colour and a very complex taste of almond, pear and fresh apricot. It is ample, full bodied and rich with a very long finish. The Meursault “Les Charmes” is known to be Meursault’s most elegant wine.

You can cellar it for up to 10 to 12 years but it will be at its peak in five years time. If you do open it before, decant it for thirty five minutes before serving. You can pair it with a large range of seafood, pan seared blue eye fillets, foie gras or duck terrine.

Fine lemon yellow with a green tint. The first impression is of a typical sulphur free nose, and Pierre-Henri may do a couple of barrels without any addition. Really delicious once get over the no sulphur, swirling the glass freshens it up. Dynamic, very good acidity in this cuvée, an impressive volume of fruit throughout, various different apples, very long. Superb finish. Hovering on a fifth star. Drink from 2028-2034
