A white Bourgogne built to stand comparison with village appellations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name refers to a selection of plots in regional appellation, kept for the quality of their soils and their position on the slope rather than for their yield. In the Côte de Beaune, some land lying just outside the village areas offers shallow limestone comparable to that of the neighbouring villages. Made and aged with the same care as the crus, this cuvée gives a Chardonnay more concentrated and longer than an everyday Bourgogne, with a mineral finish that gives away its origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the critics say about this cuvée\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe scores below cover the latest vintages of the cuvée, all vintages taken together. The 2023 vintage received 93\/100 from Jasper Morris and a silver medal at the International Wine Challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChâteau de Meursault\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the finest estates in the Côte de Beaune. The Moulin Foulot fief it grew out of dates back to the 11th century. Bought in 2012 by Olivier Halley, the estate has since expanded its vineyard: 65 hectares across around a hundred plots, farmed under certified organic agriculture, giving five Grands Crus, twenty Premiers Crus and a dozen village and regional appellations. The estate sells entirely direct, and 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, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bourgogne Terroir d'Exception\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 2023\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 150 cl, magnum\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 Deep pale gold and bright, with discreet golden highlights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Candied citrus, white flowers, toasted hazelnut, a chalky note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Concentrated and balanced, dense material for the appellation, drawn out mineral finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eServing and storing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe this Bourgogne Terroir d'Exception at 11 to 13 °C.

The grapes come from land chosen for its limestone soils and its exposure, made separately and aged like village cuvées. The wine gains the density and the length that a broad blend cannot offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy the name Terroir d'Exception?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a plot selection by the estate, blended from its best plots classified in regional appellation. The level sits between a classic Bourgogne and a village wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose a magnum?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe magnum holds 150 cl, the equivalent of two bottles. The ratio between the volume of wine and the surface in contact with air is more favourable, which slows the evolution and often gives fresher wines at the same age. It is also the format for a big table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is the bottle shipped?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelivery is free in France on orders from 300 €.
