Crafted with precision by renowned winemaker Stéphane Brocard, this white Burgundy offers a perfect harmony of indulgence and freshness. It wraps ripe orchard fruit in velvet textures, adds a luxurious layer of nutty oak, and finishes with the bright lift of citrus and minerality. Whether you’re a longtime Chardonnay lover or seeking an introduction to the world’s most refined white wines, this Meursault white wine delivers with grace, balance, and undeniable charm.

Tasting Notes – A French Pastry in a Glass

From the very first swirl, Meursault – Stephane Brocard reveals its sumptuous character. The wine opens with aromas of baked apple, ripe pear, and juicy white peach—warm, generous, and gently sweet like a caramelized apple tart cooling on a windowsill.

On the palate, it unfolds in creamy layers, rich and round with a velvety mouthfeel. A decadent note of toasted hazelnuts and subtle vanilla speaks to its careful time spent in oak barrels, adding a cozy warmth without overwhelming the fruit.

As the wine breathes, it begins to show another side—one of elegance and energy. A vibrant thread of lemon zest, a touch of citrus curd, and a whisper of chalky minerality brighten the richness, keeping everything beautifully in balance.

The finish is long, mouth-coating, and luxurious, with lingering impressions of buttered brioche, baking spice, and that unmistakable silky texture that makes Meursault white wine so sought after.

The Meursault Style – Rich, Round, and Refined

Not all Chardonnays are created equal, and Meursault wine—crafted in the heart of Burgundy—proves it. This small village in the Côte de Beaune is famed for producing white wines that are richer and more opulent than many of its neighbours, yet still anchored by freshness and finesse.

What makes Meursault white wine so distinctive?

• Limestone-rich soils that give minerality and structure

• Extended oak ageing that adds depth, creaminess, and spice

• No blending – It’s 100% Chardonnay, purely expressed

Stéphane Brocard’s approach to Meursault emphasizes balance. The wine is full and flavorful, but never overbearing—like a luxury cashmere sweater: indulgent, elegant, and timeless.
