Meursault Perrières 1er Cru Bouzereau Michel, 2023

Meursault Perrières 1er Cru from Michel Bouzereau is a finely poised white Burgundy from one of the village’s most celebrated premier cru sites. Known for its mineral backbone, precision, and restrained power, it offers a classic expression of Meursault with the pedigree and depth that have made Perrières such a benchmark vineyard.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine typically shows a luminous pale gold hue with bright clarity. The nose is refined and layered, with notes of citrus zest, white flowers, ripe pear, crushed stone, and subtle hazelnut or toasted almond nuances. On the palate, it is usually taut and structured, combining Meursault’s natural generosity with a saline, chalky minerality and a long, focused finish. The 2023 vintage should bring freshness and vibrancy, supported by enough concentration to age gracefully for many years, gradually developing richer honeyed, nutty, and truffle-like notes.

Production
Sourced from the Perrières premier cru vineyard in Meursault, a site prized for its stony soils and exceptional drainage, the wine reflects classic Côte de Beaune terroir. Michel Bouzereau is known for careful vineyard work and precise cellar practices, allowing the character of the vineyard and vintage to remain front and center. Vinification is typically handled with measured oak use to preserve purity, texture, and mineral definition.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, roast chicken, creamy poultry dishes, or fine fish such as turbot and sole. It also works well with aged Comté or other nutty alpine cheeses. Serve at around 10–12°C, and consider brief decanting if the wine is especially closed on release, though it can often be enjoyed directly from the bottle.

Producer
Michel Bouzereau is a respected Meursault producer with a strong reputation for traditional yet precise white Burgundy. The domaine is closely associated with expressive, terroir-driven wines that highlight the village’s top vineyards. Over time, the producer has earned recognition for crafting wines of clarity, balance, and age-worthy finesse, particularly in Meursault’s most esteemed premier cru sites.
