      The Wine

      Meursault is the Côte de Beaune village that made rich, golden white Burgundy famous, and Joseph Drouhin is one of the region’s most established houses. This 2018 is 100% Chardonnay, aged in oak barrels in the traditional Meursault manner.

      The result is medium to full-bodied and unmistakably Meursault: ripe orchard fruit, a creamy, almost buttery texture from barrel ageing, and toasted nut notes underneath. Crisp acidity keeps the whole thing lifted rather than heavy, and the finish runs on. The half bottle means you can open serious white Burgundy for a single course without committing to 75cl.

      Questions

      Why is Meursault different from other white Burgundy?

      Barrel ageing and the village’s soils give Meursault a richer, creamier, more nutty style than the leaner whites of Chablis.

      What temperature should I serve it at?

      10–12°C. Serving it too cold mutes the toasted, nutty character that makes it worth drinking.

      How much is in a half bottle?

      37.5cl — half a standard bottle, roughly two generous glasses.
