David Moret Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrieres 2021 white

David Moret’s Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières 2021 comes from one of the most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards in the Côte de Beaune. Made from Chardonnay, it combines Meursault’s natural richness with the cool, stony precision and mineral structure that have long led many Burgundy enthusiasts to compare Les Perrières with Grand Cru sites.

Tasting Notes
The wine is expected to show a bright golden appearance, with an aromatic profile shaped by ripe citrus, white-fleshed fruit and subtle floral notes, alongside the distinctive scent of crushed stone and chalk. On the palate, it is concentrated yet finely balanced, combining a measured, creamy texture with lively acidity and a long, mineral finish. Rather than relying on overt opulence, this 2021 Meursault Perrières is defined by precision, tension and depth. Its structure and mineral backbone should allow it to develop gracefully in bottle, with the potential to gain additional complexity over the medium to long term.

Production
Les Perrières is characterised by lean, stony limestone soils marked by sharp gravel and exposed pale rock. These austere conditions contribute to the vineyard’s characteristic density, freshness and mineral expression. David Moret’s wine is produced entirely by hand and without pumps; gravity is used to move the wine from the press into barrel, helping preserve its delicate texture and precision.

Food & Serving
Serve lightly chilled, ideally at around 11–13°C, with roasted or grilled fish, shellfish, scallops, lobster and poultry in a light cream sauce. Its mineral freshness also makes it an excellent match for mushroom dishes, risotto and mature soft cheeses. Decanting is not essential for a young bottle, but 20–30 minutes of gentle aeration in a carafe can help reveal its texture and aromatic depth.
