Bertrand de Monceny Meursault Les Chevalières 2022

Bertrand de Monceny Meursault Les Chevalières is a compelling expression of one of Meursault’s most respected lieux-dits, where mineral depth and bright Chardonnay fruit meet in a poised, cellar-worthy style. The 2023 vintage brings an attractive balance of freshness and ripeness, making this a wine that is immediately enjoyable yet built with enough structure to develop gracefully over time.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a pale golden colour with youthful green reflections. The nose is refined and expressive, with white flowers, lemon, lime, green apple, pear, and a hint of peach, layered over subtle chalky, flinty mineral notes. The palate is fresh and focused, carried by a lively line of acidity that gives the wine clarity and lift. A gentle roundness from ripe fruit and discreet oak adds texture and complexity, while the stony, chalk-driven finish points to good aging potential over the next several years.

Production
Les Chevalières is a highly regarded Meursault lieu-dit with limestone-rich, stony soils and excellent drainage, conditions that naturally limit yields and encourage concentration. Bertrand de Monceny works the vineyard carefully, including hand harvesting and bunch selection, to preserve fruit quality and highlight the character of the site. In the cellar, the Chardonnay is gently pressed and fermented in French oak barrels, with a moderate proportion of new oak used for complexity, then matured for around 14 months mainly in used barrels.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for roast chicken, veal, butter-poached fish, scallops, lobster, creamy pasta, or fine soft cheeses. Serve it at 10–12°C to best show its freshness and texture. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can help open the wine if enjoyed young.

Producer
Domaine Bertrand de Monceny is a Burgundy producer focused on highlighting vineyard character through careful farming and restrained cellar work. The domaine’s approach reflects the tradition of Meursault, where the interaction between site, fruit, and subtle oak is key. While specific historical details are limited here, the producer’s commitment to quality and terroir-driven winemaking is evident in this wine’s precision and balance.
