It is one of the estate's cuvées that critics single out most regularly, vintage after vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Les Grands Charrons named vineyard plot lies in the northern part of Meursault, near the boundary with Monthelie, on well drained clay and limestone soils at mid slope. The Meursault appellation is among the largest in the Côte de Beaune and owes its reputation to Chardonnay wines that are both rich and structured, where hazelnut and fresh butter sit alongside a clearly present acidity. The plots located north of the village give wines a little more tense than the village average, which assures them a good hold over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the critics say about this cuvée\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scores below cover the most recent vintages of this cuvée, all vintages combined.

The Moulin Foulot fief, from which it comes, dates back to the 11th century. Bought in 2012 by Olivier Halley, the estate has since expanded its vineyard: 65 hectares spread over around a hundred plots, farmed under certified organic agriculture, which give five Grands Crus, twenty Premiers Crus and a dozen village and regional appellations. The estate sells entirely direct, 100 % of its production comes from its own vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France, Bourgogne, Côte de Beaune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meursault Clos des Grands Charrons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Château de Meursault\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay 100 %\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e White wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eViticulture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified organic agriculture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75 cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Frank yellow gold, golden reflections, sustained brilliance in the glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hazelnut, fresh butter, vineyard peach, discreet honey, a toasted note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich and enveloping, supported by a clean acidity, long finish on almond\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and cellaring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe this Meursault Clos des Grands Charrons at 12 to 13 °C.
