Made from Chardonnay sourced from two parcels and produced in tiny quantities of just 1,500 liters, it combines Meursault’s signature depth with finesse and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Meursault shows the generous, luminous character typical of the appellation, with ripe fruit richness and a polished, confident texture. The nose opens with notes of ripe peaches, apple, and citrus, lifted by a clear mineral edge that keeps the wine feeling fresh and focused.\n\nOn the palate, it is broad and supple, with plenty of fruit weight balanced by an underlying salinity and limestone-driven tension. The finish is long and fruit-driven, with the kind of depth and structure that suggests excellent aging potential, especially in magnum, where the wine should evolve beautifully over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine comes from two parcels in Meursault, where the chalky soils and favorable site selection help shape a precise balance of richness and mineral tension. The grapes are hand-harvested and pressed immediately upon arrival at the cellar to preserve freshness and purity.\n\nFermentation and maturation take place traditionally in oak barrels, with the wine aged for 15 to 18 months before bottling. The exact time in barrel depends on the vintage, allowing Domaine des Terres de Velle to adapt the élevage to the character of each harvest and achieve the best possible balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Meursault is an excellent match for fish dishes, particularly richer preparations such as roasted turbot, monkfish, or creamy sauces, and it also pairs beautifully with dry cheeses. Serve at around 10–12°C to highlight both the wine’s texture and freshness. Decanting is not essential, but a short decant can help open the wine if it is served young.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine des Terres de Velle is a Burgundy producer known for traditional winemaking and a clear focus on terroir expression.
