Domaine Marquis d'Angerville Meursault 1er Cru Santenots 2023

Domaine Marquis d'Angerville’s Meursault 1er Cru Santenots 2023 is a beautifully poised Burgundy that brings the depth and finesse expected from one of the region’s most respected names. Known for combining Meursault’s generous texture with the structure of a premier cru site, it offers a refined, cellar-worthy expression of Chardonnay from a historic parcel with a long reputation for serious white wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine typically shows a luminous pale gold hue with excellent clarity and definition. The nose is expressive yet precise, offering white flowers, ripe orchard fruit, citrus peel, and a subtle layer of hazelnut, chalk, and gentle oak spice. On the palate, it is layered and focused, balancing Meursault’s signature richness with vibrant acidity and a mineral backbone. Expect flavors of pear, lemon curd, stone fruit, and toasted almond, finishing long and saline. This is a wine with strong aging potential, likely to gain complexity and depth over the next 8–12 years or more.

Production
Santenots is a prized premier cru site at the southern edge of Meursault, where limestone-rich soils help Chardonnay achieve both concentration and tension. Domaine Marquis d’Angerville is known for careful vineyard work, often favoring meticulous hand harvesting to preserve fruit quality and precision. Vinification is typically restrained, with a focus on expressing terroir through gentle pressing, controlled fermentation, and judicious oak use.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with dishes that complement its texture and mineral drive, such as roast chicken with herbs, veal in a cream sauce, lobster, turbot, or mushroom risotto. Serve chilled but not too cold, ideally around 10–12°C, and consider decanting for 20–30 minutes if drinking young to allow the aromas to open fully.
