Gaëlle et Jérôme Meunier created their own domain 12 years ago. Their vines are planted on 10 hectares in 4 appellations Mercurey, Rully, Santenay and Puligny-Montrachet (including 1.2ha of 1er Cru). Their production is 100 % hand harvested and reflects their terroir. Gaelle harvested her whites quite early to retain acidity and this has given them a lean, mineral feel.
Good intensity on the nose. Step up from village wine. Spicy oak. Melon, pineapple, blossom, honeysuckle. Juicy fruit. Mineral structure. Good acidity, weight, and freshness. 60% new oak apparently, but only a very light toast on the barrels. 13.0% ABV Drink now-2037

16.5+ Jancis Robinson "An appealing nose with bags of chalky flintiness, subtle nutty notes. The palate has lots of energy and precision and good concentration of fruit as well – well-judged oaking adds some flesh."
