Domaine Michelot Meursault Charmes 1er Cru is an elegant white wine from one of the most prestigious vineyards in Meursault, located in Burgundy. The Les Charmes vineyard is one of the most famous Premier Cru parcels in the region, known for producing rich and refined Chardonnay wines. The chalky and clayey soils of this vineyard contribute to the complexity and minerality of the wine, which is characteristic of the Meursault style.
On the nose, the Meursault Charmes 1er Cru offers aromas of ripe white fruits such as peach and pear, citrus fruits, and delicate floral notes. Due to the maturation in oak barrels, subtle hints of vanilla, toasted nuts and butter also emerge. On the palate, the wine is full and rich, with a creamy texture and a refreshing acidity that provides balance. The long finish reveals an elegant minerality, typical of this appellation.
This Meursault is perfect to combine with grilled fish, shellfish such as lobster or crab, or poultry in a creamy sauce. It is also an excellent accompaniment to risottos with mushrooms or cheeses such as comté and brie. The rich, creamy texture of the wine forms a beautiful harmony with these refined dishes, while the fresh acidity provides balance.
